Working memory in context: The role of alcohol distractors in working memory performance in low to heavy alcohol drinkers doi.org/10.1111/acer...

Another publication led by Karis Colyer-Patel in Behavioral Brain Research on the role of age! The paper shows how age of onset and severity of alcohol use may influence resting-state brain connectivity. doi.org/10.1016/j.bb...

New publication led by @emesekroon.bsky.social in Drug and Alcohol Dependence! The study implemented a two-week online program to help people reduce their cannabis use on their own using goal setting and mental strategies. doi.org/10.1016/j.dr... #Cannabis #DigitalIntervention

Our team was also represented at this year's @ecnp.eu conference in Amsterdam in October with multiple posters and e-posters! Topics ranged from cognition and cannabis use disorder to resting-state connectivity and alcohol use, as well as social contexts and peer feedback and the role of age.

Our team was also represented at the Dutch Neuroscience Meeting! PhD Candidates Karis Colyer-Patel and Sofie van Koppen gave updates on their latest projects focusing specifically on the roles of age during a symposium organised by Karis and Prof. Dr. Hanan El Marroun!

Our team recently moved from the Clinical Psychology team to Brain and Cognition team at the @erasmusuniversity.bsky.social ! nofaresearch.com/en/uncategor...

#ThisWeekInNPP This paper from @jcousijn.bsky.social & team found that heavier cannabis use and earlier onset correlated with ⬆️ resting-state functional 🧠 connectivity, while CUD severity was linked to ⬆️ anterior salience network connectivity in ♂️ only www.nature.com/articles/s41...

@jcousijn.bsky.social received the Ammodo Science Award for Social Sciences at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam for her innovative approach to addiction research! www.eur.nl/nieuws/ammod...

Publication alert! Nora de Bode et al. wrote a systematic review on medicinal cannabis use for mental health. The take-aways? See this thread 🧵 and read the paper here: doi.org/10.1016/j.cp...

Welcome to the Bluesky of the Neuroscience of Addiction (NofA) lab. As a team, we study how the brain in interaction with the environment shapes trajectories of substance use and addiction. Follow us for updates from the team and research!
