Addiction Biology (AB)

Addiction Biology is a leading peer-reviewed international journal dedicated to the scientific study of the biological mechanisms underlying addiction. It publishes cutting-edge research that explores how substances such as alcohol, nicotine, opioids, and other drugs affect the brain and behavior. The journal bridges neuroscience, psychology, pharmacology, and genetics to provide a comprehensive understanding of addiction as a chronic brain disorder. The journal features original research articles, reviews, and experimental studies covering molecular, cellular, behavioral, and systems-level approaches. Key areas include neurochemical pathways involved in reward and reinforcement, genetic and epigenetic factors influencing addiction vulnerability, neuroimaging studies of brain structure and function, and mechanisms of tolerance, dependence, and relapse. It also publishes translational research that connects laboratory findings with clinical applications and treatment strategies. Addiction Biology plays a critical role in advancing knowledge of substance use disorders and behavioral addictions. It supports the development of evidence-based interventions and pharmacological treatments aimed at reducing addiction-related harm. The journal is widely respected for its interdisciplinary approach and contribution to both basic neuroscience and clinical addiction research.
