Master Thesis Defense of Adam Shi

Congratulations to Adam on the outstanding defense of his master's thesis, "Neurobehavioral effects of Deep Brain Stimulation of the Nucleus Accumbens shell on Nicotine-vapor dependent Rats".

Adam's research, conducted during this last year, delved deep into the complex neurobiological mechanisms underlying nicotine addiction. By employing cutting-edge deep brain stimulation techniques targeting the nucleus accumbens shell, Adam was able to shed new light on the potential of this approach to modulate the behavioral manifestations of nicotine dependence.

The depth and rigor of Adam's work, combined with his exceptional presentation and defense, were highly praised by the esteemed thesis committee. His findings have the potential to inform the development of novel therapeutic interventions for those struggling with nicotine addiction, a pressing public health concern.

 We are incredibly proud of Adam's achievement and his contribution to advancing our scientific understanding in this critical area. His dedication, critical thinking, and passion for research have been truly inspiring, and we have no doubt that he will continue to make significant strides in his future endeavors.

Congratulations once again, Adam! Your hard work and perseverance have paid off, and we look forward to seeing the impact of your groundbreaking research.
