Abstract
Substance addiction is a major public health crisis. Neuromodulation treatments show promise, but the therapeutic targets remain unclear. Studying human brain lesions that led to addiction remission with the lesion-network-mapping approach resulted in the identification of a brain circuit shared across addiction disorders that may have therapeutic potential.
