Ho A, Feng A, Barbosa D, Wu H, Smith M, Malenka R, et al.
Brain Stimul . 2021 Feb; 14(2):330-334. PMID: 33524612
Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) affects nearly 5% of the world's adult population. Despite treatment, AUD often manifests with relapse to binge drinking, which has been associated with corticostriatal hypersynchrony...
