About GAB 2019

Magnus Group is honored to welcome you to attend the "Global Conference on Addiction Medicine and Behavioral Health" scheduled on August 22-24, 2019 in London, UK.

Aim and Scope: GAB 2019 is an international meeting ground focused on neuroscience contributions and it aims to advance the understanding of the action of drugs of abuse and addictive processes. The conference encourages research on the etiology, prevention, identification, and treatment of substance abuse; thus, providing a forum for the dissemination of information in the extensive field of addiction. GAB gives the participants direct access to the most significant and current research findings on the nature and management of alcoholism and alcohol-related disorders.

Abstracts are accepted in both animal experimentation and clinical research whose content is geared towards behavioral, psychological, genetic, neuro-biological, pharmacological, biomedical, epidemiological, and sociological perspectives in the field. GAB 2019 particularly encourages the submission of abstracts which have a harm reduction perspective. However, all philosophies related to the field will find a place in the event.

Upcoming Neurology and Addiction Conferences:

Welcome message from Yael Abreu-Villaça, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

Dear participants, it is a pleasure to welcome you to our meeting. There is a strong association between mental illnesses and substance use disorders. As an example, the rates of tobacco, alcohol, cannabis and cocaine use disorders are about three times higher in patients with schizophrenia when compared to the general population. Also, mental illness patients are more resistant to the strategies available for treatment, as well as show increased rates of relapse and re-hospitalization. These findings aggravate concerns regarding the gap in the knowledge of the biological bases that underlie this comorbidity. The use of animal models complement epidemiological studies, has translational potential and paves the way to studies that aim to identify more effective drugs in the treatment of these diseases. With that in mind, the scientific session “Dual diagnosis - mental illness co-occurring with substance abuse” will deepen the discussion of current hypotheses and mechanisms proposed to explain this association.

Welcome message from Sam Vaknin, Southern Federal University, Russia

Dear Colleagues, participants in the Global Conference on Addiction Medicine and Behavioral Health (London, August 2019).

Addiction is one of the hottest topics in psychology. The addictive personality has been linked to the biochemistry of the brain, to post-traumatic conditions, to substance abuse, to personality and mood disorders, and even to gender roles.

All these and many additional dimensions are covered in this conference. The cutting edge of research on specific addictions – from cigarettes to the internet – is coupled with animal and human case studies across the life-span, including in childhood and adolescence.

Addiction psychiatry and medical-neurological aspects are brought to the fore as well as the social implications of addictive behaviors and the costs to the individual, even when he or she embarks on a path of rehabilitation. The conference is rounded up with alternative approaches to addiction and new insights.

It is rare to gain this kind of thorough exposure to all these facets of this complex phenomenon of addiction in one place and in three days. I am looking forward to widening my horizons and enriching my knowledge substantially by listening to all of you attentively and learning throughout the conference.

Sam Vaknin,

Southern Federal University,

Russia
