The mission of the CNC Substance Abuse Pillar is to facilitate groundbreaking basic neuroscience discoveries with the potential to transform our understanding of substance use disorders. Our goal is to create an exceptional environment for addiction research at UAB by increasing collaborations and interdisciplinary partnerships, provide student training opportunities, facilitate the successful acquisition of extramural research funding, and speed the translation of basic research discoveries into clinical practice.
