Caption: Dr. Christopher Cowan (right), assistant professor of psychiatry, found that increased brain connections during chronic drug use may actually limit behavioral changes associated with addiction, rather than support them. The team, including lead authors Dr. Suprabha Pulipparacharuvil and William Renthal, hopes this finding could lead to a pathway for pharmaceutical treatment of addiction.
