Research

Alcohol and substance use disorders are substantial public health problems. The causes of these disorders, like the traits themselves, are likely to be complex. Twin and adoption studies have shown that both environmental and genetic factors influence alcohol and substance use, dependence, and levels of response. The goal of our laboratory is to identify the genetic variations underlying alcohol and substance use, the consequences of alcohol and substance abuse, and the responses to treatment.
