Congrats to Jacob Buatti for proposing his dissertation research! We're looking forward to seeing how your work will help innovate radiation therapy treatment planning!

[UTHealthSA Radiological Sciences & Medical Physics @UTHSARadSci]

Her work demonstrated minimal structural overlap between BA and SUD, although both chiefly involved brain regions known to be functionally engaged by reward tasks. SUD-associated brain abnormalities were found to be more extensive than those of BA.

Dissertation Spotlight: Congratulations again to Duaa Banaja, Ph.D. for successfully defending her dissertation! Our grads have done some incredible work!
Title: "Mapping and Network Modeling of Structural Brain Abnormalities in Addiction Disorders"
Mentor: Dr. Peter Fox

[UTHealthSA Radiological Sciences & Medical Physics @UTHSARadSci]

Dr. Banaja's work investigated the neurological similarities in behavioral addictions (BA) to substance use disorders (SUD). She used coordinate-based meta-analyses (CBMA) to overcome sample size limitations and pooled data from all published findings.
