Sorry, registration for this course is now closed.
Please note this course is rescheduled to Thursdays, July 10 and 17.
Addiction has enormous social, legal, medical, and personal costs. Addiction might be a disease, and yet using is a choice. New data show that brain changes resulting from addiction perpetuate the cycle of relapse. Are children destined for addiction? How do we understand these contradictions? Discussion will range from the neurobiology of addiction to the effects of stress on relapse, and we’ll discuss how brain science informs this discussion.
This course is offered in a hybrid format. The course is held in-person at the Outreach Building and broadcast from the classroom online via Zoom. This is the in-person section.
Course meets on July 10 & 17.
