Research news | Jun 22 2017 Stanford Medicine - Scope Addiction policies should accord with neuroscience, Stanford researchers argue Addiction, like riding a bike, is a learned behavioral pattern you don’t unlearn even if you haven’t performed it for decades. Your brain’s semi-permanently hot-wired reward system has to be stripped down, reordered, and re-insulated again.

Legal and illegal drugs are killing more people than AIDS ever did, yet the nation’s drug policies are based on unproven assumptions about addiction. Neuroscience could help shape more effective policies and save lives. Image Research news | Apr 26 2017 Stanford Medicine - News Center Scientists assemble working human forebrain circuits in a lab dish Stanford investigators fused two stem-cell-derived neural spheroids, each containing a different type of human neuron, then watched as one set of neurons migrated and hooked up with the other set. Image Research news | Apr 6 2017 Stanford Medicine - News Center Brain’s navigation more complex than previously thought Neuroscientists’ discovery of grid cells, popularly known as the brain’s GPS, was hailed as a major discovery. But new Stanford research suggest the system is more complicated than anyone had guessed. Image Featured News | Mar 23 2017 Stanford News Stanford scientists find a previously unknown role for the cerebellum Researchers long believed that the cerebellum did little more than process our senses and control our muscles. New techniques to study the most densely packed neurons in our brains reveal that it may do much more.
