Brain Signal Predicts Alcohol Relapse | Science News

New research reveals that heightened activity in a brain region called the BNST during abstinence may predict alcohol relapse—before people even drink again.

This could lead to better screening tools and targeted treatments for humans struggling with addiction, offering hope for more effective recovery support.
