The Brain Science, Addiction and Drugs report from the Academy of Medical Sciences has been covered by most of the UK papers today (22/5/08).
Professor Sir Gabriel Horn warns: "The use of psychoactive drugs by patients and healthy individuals will become an increasing feature in all our lives. Society must be prepared to respond to these developments. We must act now to harness the opportunities offered by advances in brain science to treat and prevent disease, but also to reduce the harms associated with drug misuse and addiction."
