Abstract

BACKGROUND: There are significant sex differences in the causes and consequences of alcohol misuse, suggesting that sex-specific neurobiological mechanisms might drive drinking. The current study used a rodent model to determine whether chronic intermittent alcohol exposure impacts cortical, striatal, and limbic neural circuits in a sex-specific manner.
