Judith Grisel (neuroscientist)

Judith Grisel is a neuroscientist who studies how drugs impact the brain, especially those related to addiction. She examines the brain's chemical systems—like dopamine—to understand why substances such as cocaine and opioids create strong cravings and dependence. Her research helps reveal the biological mechanisms behind addiction, aiming to inform better treatments and prevention strategies. By exploring how drugs alter brain function, Grisel’s work contributes to a deeper understanding of the neural pathways involved in addictive behaviors, ultimately supporting efforts to combat substance abuse and improve mental health interventions.
