NIDA's Neuroscience Consortium organized the 9th annual Frontiers in Addiction Research Mini-Convention held at the 2010 Society for Neuroscience Meeting, November 12, 2010 in San Diego, CA. The mini-convention included sessions on the role of nicotinic receptors in the habenula in mediating addiction; using model organisms to discover unanticipated pathways to addiction; a fresh look at dopamine release and uptake; and connectivity of the human brain and its disruption by drugs of abuse.
