Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Addiction Neuroscience investigates the neurobiological underpinnings of substance use disorders and related behaviors. Research focuses on the effects of various substances, including opioids, alcohol, and cocaine, on brain function and behavior. Studies examine factors such as anxiety, parenting, polysubstance use, and withdrawal, often employing animal models and neuroimaging techniques to understand addiction mechanisms and potential interventions.
