Biography

Despite drug addiction being a serious and pervasive issue, very little is known about the neurobiological underpinnings of this disease. My dissertation focuses on better understanding a brain region which decreases cocaine-seeking behavior, and how this region communicates with the rest of the brain. This work is valuable because it explores both how the brain functions at a basic level and how it can be changed by drug addiction.
