Professor Simon Lenton

Simon Lenton is Director of the National Drug Research Institute, where he has worked since 1993. In addition, he works part time as a clinical psychologist in private practice.

After some 7 yrs in the role, Simon is stepping down from the Director's position to focus on his research activity and, as a consequence, the University is engaged in a recruitment process to appoint a new Director. Applications have closed and the Institute will announce his successor in the near future.

Simon's research interests include bridging the gap between drug policy research and drug policy practice, illicit drug use and harm reduction, impact of legislative options for drugs, availability of take-home naloxone, and drink and drug driving. His current research program includes evaluations of take-home naloxone programs in Australia, and an international collaborative web survey of small-time cannabis cultivators in 18 countries. Simon has published widely on drugs, health and the law and provided advice to a range of government and private organisations, both in Australia and internationally, on evidence based drug policy and other drug issues. He was a member of the WA Premier's Task Force on Methamphetamine. He was a deputy editor of Drug and Alcohol Review from 1997 to 2013 and edited the 'Harm Reduction Digest' that appeared in that journal. He is an Adjunct Professor at the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre (NDARC) at UNSW.
