From reward to addiction: the neural correlates of craving (A14*)

• Subject Area: Human Cognitive and Systems Neuroscience
• Term: from 2016 to 2019
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 36555331

The project will investigate the neural correlates of addiction-related biases and how they interact with craving. We will perform investigations at a basic science level in healthy controls, as well as in patients suffering from addiction with the goal to establish neural correlates of reward/addiction-related reward processing and craving.
