WASHINGTON, July 29 -- The Society for Neuroscience issued the following news release:
Neural activity that reflects the intention to drink alcohol is observed in the prefrontal cortex and is blunted in rats with a family history of excessive drinking, according to research from eNeuro. This insight could lead to novel treatments for alcohol use disorders.
The prefrontal cortex is a brain region involved in decision-making that becomes active before a behavior is initia . . .
