The Science of Addiction Part One: Why Do People Do Drugs?

In part one of our three part series on the science of addiction, we focus on the question: Why do people do drugs?

Addiction is often stigmatized or hidden. And that may be part of why many of us know so little about what addiction actually is and how it works. And that's what this podcast is about. We're going to talk to the experts at University of Michigan Health and the U-M Addiction Center - people whose careers are focused on better understanding addiction and how to better treat and live with addiction.

Featured Speaker: Jonathan Morrow, M.D., Ph.D.
