For this "rescued" episode, Steve Munger makes his return, joining Dave for a discussion with JAX Associate Professor Elissa Chesler. We talk about Elissa’s systems genetics approach for studying complex behaviors and why she is using this approach to study the neurogenetics of addiction.

This episode is part 1 of a 2-part series.

Episode 10 - The Neurogenetics of Drug Addiction, Part II

Supplemental material, in science speak, usually refers to the data and results that are critical for understanding a research study but don’t make it into print. In this spirit, we provide a behind-the-scenes look into The Jackson Laboratory. We have conversations with the JAX team about their research, the state of science and its future, and their passions and motivations. We also talk a lot about food.
