Excessive alcohol use is often initiated for its pleasurable effects, or “reward,” but with time, leads to long-term changes in brain function that involves an abnormal activation of brain stress systems, and drinking for “relief.” This lecture will review the emerging neurobiology and molecular genetics of such mechanisms, and illustrate how this knowledge can be used to guide treatment development.
