How the brain processes information could help us understand the mechanism behind cocaine addiction. CU’s Institute of Behavioural Genetics is using state-of-the-art technology to gain insight into how psychostimulant drugs alter our brains. The results of this work could one day help addicts recover fully from their dependency on drugs. CU Science Update’s Angelica Kalika met with Dr. Don Cooper, Associate Professor in CU’s Department of Psychology and Neuroscience to learn more about his lab’s investigation into cocaine addiction.
