Addiction Neuroscience Research Seminars

These seminars, coordinated and jointly hosted by the Alcohol Research Center (ARC), and NIDA-supported Center for Opioid and Cocaine Addiction (COCA) and Women's Research Center (SCORE), are held on Thursdays (12:00 noon to 1:00 p.m. EST). Seminar speakers present a formal lecture and then meet individually or in small groups with interested faculty and trainees. Although intended primarily for the enrichment of the faculty and trainees, the presentations of these prominent scientists are advertised to the MUSC academic community as well.
