This project explores the neural circuits involved in reward and aversion, particularly in the context of addiction. By developing genetic methods to manipulate specific brain circuits, the research aims to understand how these systems influence motivation and relapse in drug-seeking behavior.
Our affective and motivational state is important for our decisions, actions and quality of life.
Many pathological conditions affect this state.
For example, addictive drugs are hyperactivating the reward system and trigger a strong motivation for continued drug intake, whereas many somatic and psychiatric diseases lead to an aversive state, characterized by loss of motivation.
