“Integrating Multi-Modal Biobehavioral Data to Treat Substance Use Disorders” Seminar, Dr. Brett Froeliger, Medical University of South Carolina

Abstract:
The role of neural circuitry in motivation, reward and drug use will be discussed; along with associations between inhibitory control and relapse vulnerability. These topics will be discussed in the context of ongoing research on the potential value of 3 bio-behavioral treatments for substance use disorders.
