SUMMARY:Monthly PhD seminar - Markus Heilig
DESCRIPTION:Lieu : Centre Broca Nouvelle-Aquitaine \nMarkus Heilig\nMarkus Heilig\nProfessor of Neuro Psychiatry\nDepartment of Clinical and Experimental Medicine (IKE)\nCenter for Social and Affective Neuroscience (CSAN) \nInvité par la NBA et Bordeaux Neurocampus dans le cadre des PhD seminars \n\nAbstract\nAlcohol use is an ongoing public health crisis\, and effective treatments are largely lacking. Neurobiological research has grown exponentially in the past two decades\, and has become increasingly sophisticated in its ability to identify neural circuits behind alcohol seeking and taking in animal models. To date\, however\, these advances have not translated into novel clinical treatments. \nThis talk will discuss potential limitations of drug discovery strategies that use animal models where drug seeking is studied in isolation\, using conventional self-administration in groups of animals. It will introduce the critical importance of phenomena that are key to clinical alcohol addiction: individual variation in vulnerability\, choice of alcohol over natural rewards\, and continued use of alcohol despite adverse consequences. These concepts will be discussed in the context of our recent discoveries implicating GABA-transmission in central amygdala as a key process to target with novel medications. \nRecent key references\n1.
