Carlos R. Dostal, MD, PhD, FASAM, is studying kratom-related use disorder through his work in addiction medicine, focusing on what happens when use of the plant substance becomes a disorder.

Kratom, sometimes used for pain or to manage opioid withdrawal, can lead to dependence and withdrawal if used regularly. Dr. Dostal, along with Kathryn A. Cunningham, PhD, FACNP, FASPET, is studying the biological markers that could help explain why some people develop problems with kratom use while others don't.

Their project, “Phenotyping and Biomarkers for Kratom-Related Use Disorder,” was one of eight selected for a UTMB FY27 Clinical Research Directed Initiative (CRDI) program award.
