The Jacob P. Waletzky Award of the Society for Neuroscience is given to a young scientist (within 15 years of his/her Ph.D. or M.D. degree) whose independent research has led to significant conceptual and empirical contributions to the understanding of drug addiction. Both basic and clinical researchers are eligible for the award. Future plans to continue to make significant contributions to addiction research and treatment is one of the selection criteria.

This year’s awards winners were Garret Stuber (University of North Carolina) and Karen Ersche from (University of Cambridge). This year, Dr. Jeremy P.
