Title: Recent updates on incubation of drug craving: a mini-review. Author: Li X, Caprioli D, Marchant NJ. Journal: Addict Biol; 2015 Sep; 20(5):872-6. PubMed ID: 25440081.

We then review several key publications from the past year on behavioral and mechanistic findings related to incubation of drug craving.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
