SUMMARY:Biological Sciences Colloquium:  Drs. W.G. Stooksbury and H.T. Millen
DESCRIPTION:Drs. W.G. Stooksbury and H.T. Millen will present a talk about their work entitled\, “Substance Use Disorders and Addiction:  Neurobiological Mechanisms and Treatment Implications” \nThe Abstract is as follows: \nAddiction and substance use disorders are chronic and relapsing conditions characterized by compulsions to seek a substance\, loss of impulse control to limit intake resulting in increasing use\, and negative affective states when access to the substance is unavailable. Substance use is a significant contributor to mortality and morbidity world-wide. Despite the initial report released by the Surgeon General in 1964 regarding smoking and tobacco use\, nicotine continues to be a significant public health risk. In this discussion\, we will cover the current theories regarding the neurobiological mechanisms behind addiction with a focus on tobacco use disorder.  We will explore current FDA approved pharmacotherapies\, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation\, and emerging treatment options\, examining how their mechanisms of action modulate addiction pathways.
