 Drug Addictions - Putting Drugs into Context

 

This presentation will review translational studies concerned  with environmental influences on the behavioural and neurobiological  response to addictive drugs in people with substance use disorders as  well as in animal models of drug use and addiction. These findings point to crucial differences between opiate versus  psychostimulants, and challenge current theories of drug reward and  addiction.
