Synopsis

A detailed look at how brain imaging, genetics, and biochemistry illuminate alcohol research.

This edition summarizes FY 1997 activities at the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism and highlights the work of intramural laboratories.

The report describes in concrete terms how researchers use brain imaging, electrophysiology, and neuropsychology to study alcoholics, those at risk, and matched controls. It also explains new statistical approaches for interpreting brain images from fMRI and PET studies, including Gaussian random field methods and wavelet analysis. Alongside imaging, the volume covers studies on fatty acids, lipid membranes, neurochemistry, and the genetic and molecular tools used to understand alcohol-related behavior.
  • Learn how imaging and brain measures are used to track alcohol effects in the brain.
  • See how advanced statistics help interpret complex brain data from fMRI and PET studies.
  • Explore research on fatty acids, lipid interactions, and how alcohol alters membrane properties.
  • Discover how molecular biology and gene-based approaches are used to study alcohol intake and behavior.
Ideal for readers of scientific reports and anyone curious about the neuroscience of addiction and alcohol research.
