Title: It’s About the Brain, Not the Substance

ToxTime Event March , 2024 at 2:00 PM CSTThe disease of addiction is a complex, progressive brain disease that is described in terms of specific substances but should be thought of as a brain disease, first and foremost. It is an individual’s interaction with the environment and environmental stimuli (including specific substances) that sets in motion the neurological changes that invariably lead to the disease of addiction. In this brief presentation, Dr. Galbis-Reig will use an analogy to describe and discuss these complex interactions so that attendees can better understand the disease of addiction as a primary brain disorder.

A recording of the presentation and a certificate of attendance will be available 24-48 hours after completion. You must be subscribed to our mailing list to receive a certificate.
