  • Short Note on Dark Side of Addiction
    lism and D OPEN ACCESS Freely available online o ru h g o lc D A e p f e o n l d a e Journal of n r n c u e o J ISSN: 2329-6488 Alcoholism & Drug Dependence Editorial Short Note on Dark Side of Addiction Richard Samson* Department of Psychology, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Michigan, 500 S State St, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, United States ABSTRACT Addiction is a biopsychosocial disorder characterized by repeated use of drugs, or repetitive engagement in a behavior such as gambling, despite harm to self and others. According to the "brain disease model of addiction," while a number of psychosocial factors contribute to the development and maintenance of addiction, a biological process that is induced by repeated exposure to an addictive stimulus is the core pathology that drives the development and maintenance of an addiction. Many scholars who study addiction argue that the brain disease model is incomplete and misleading. Emotions are "feeling" states and classic physiological emotive responses that are interpreted based on the history of the organism and the context. Motivation is a persistent state that leads to organized activity. Both are intervening variables and intimately related and have neural representations in the brain. The present thesis is that drugs of abuse elicit powerful emotions that can be interwoven conceptually into this framework. Keywords: Allostasis; Corticotropin-releasing factor; Dynorphin; Extended amygdala; Incentive salience; Opponent process INTRODUCTION clinical research in humans and preclinical studies involving ΔFosB have identified compulsive sexual activity – specifically, any form The brain disease model posits that addiction is a disorder of the of sexual intercourse – as an addiction (i.e., sexual addiction).

  • 2010 Chronicle
    undergraduate research CHRONICLEΎ̱̯̰̯ Program for Research Initiatives for Science Majors Welcome I’m delighted to introduce the first PRISM student research Chronicle. Now in its fourth year, the Program for Research Initiatives for Science Majors (PRISM) was founded to improve and expand opportunities for students to participate in faculty mentored research. These opportuni- ties not only provide student access to new equipment and procedures, they help build personal bonds between our students and faculty and help engage students in the practice of doing science. Thus, this Chronicle not only represents a culmination of the many achievements of our students, it is also a way to reach out to new students and demonstrate the diversity and depth of opportunities they have in our science programs. I am particularly pleased to highlight the research projects collected in this issue as they represent a significant step in the growth of PRISM. Five of the students featured in this Chronicle have decided to pursue their studies via graduate school – a record number for our program. Danielle Scimeca, featured on page 15, has gone on to an MD/PhD program at the University of Miami. Jason Quiñones, featured on page 13, is now in his first year of a PhD program in Pharmacology & Toxi- cology at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. And Tee- shavi Narayne, Katherine Reynoso, and Amanda Vasquez, featured on pages 11, 14, and 16, respectively, have each moved on to masters and doctorate programs within the CUNY system. Other students, such as Nazia Mahmood (page 9), have opted to work in teaching or labo- ratory work while they prepare for graduate school.
