Genetics & Epigenetics of Addiction
Genetics and Epigenetics of Addiction explore how biological inheritance and life experiences influence addiction risk. Genetics affect how individuals respond to substances, while epigenetic changes from stress or trauma can alter gene activity. These factors together shape vulnerability and resilience. This knowledge supports more targeted and personalized treatment approaches.
