How addiction forms by looking at social media, fast food and other facets of daily life. A video of a talk by Judson Brewer MD, PhD given at the “From Research to Recovery Town Hall” at COBE (College Behavioral and Emotional Health Institute at
Virginia Commonwealth University). COBE collaborated with Field Studio Films to capture all of the talks on video to use as a community resource for education and dissemination of the important conversations between researchers, professionals and members of the community. We thought this talk from Dr. Judson Brewer, MD, Ph.D. was really important, and wanted to share it.
