Research

  • The process leading up to addictive disorders is complex and several factors contribute to induce and maintain addictions to both drugs and natural rewards, including drug priming and exposure to drug related cues. My research group aims at evaluating novel psychological and pharmacological treatments for alcohol and amphetamine dependence, respectively. We also develop treatment for co-morbid ADHD and substance dependence. The research group includes various professions and competencies, and we collaborate with researchers in psychotherapy, epidemiology, genetics, and infectious diseases.

    One main focus is the effects of pharmaceutical drugs on drug-craving, drug-seeking behavior and relapse to illicit drug use, in patients with addictive disorders. By combining human experimental models and placebo controlled clinical trials in natural settings we strive to shorten the gap between discovery, medication safety trials and efficacy trials.

    We work with three distinct clinical populations: patients with amphetamine dependence, patients with alcohol dependence, and patients with a co-morbid diagnosis of ADHD and a concomitant substance use disorder. We collaborate with other researchers in areas such as opioid use disorder, alcohol consumption post liver transplant, novel ultrasound technology in alcoholic liver disease, and evaluation of novel drug testing in exhaled air.
