On the other hand, social networks are dramatically influenced by alcohol consumption. Understanding the interaction between sociality and alcohol consumption is important to prevent and treat AUD. Rodent models have been useful to study the interaction between sociality and alcohol consumption. The aim of this dissertation is to explore the relationship between alcohol use and sociality and further develop the prairie vole rodent model to study the efficacy of oxytocin as a pharmacotherapy for AUD. 000007536 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000007536 650__ $$aNeurosciences$$022870 000007536 650__ $$aAlcoholism$$014412 000007536 650__ $$aSubstance-Related Disorders$$032029 000007536 650__ $$aRodentia$$025590 000007536 650__ $$aAlcohol Drinking$$014403 000007536 6531_ $$asocial neuroscience 000007536 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000007536 692__ $$aDepartment of Behavioral Neuroscience$$041394 000007536 7001_ $$aWalcott, André$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000007536 7201_ $$aRyabinin, Andrey$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor$$eMentor 000007536 8564_ $$9a0f20355-143e-447f-85a1-bec4079a0903$$s5344207$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/7536/files/walcott.andre.2019.pdf$$ePublic$$21e0315a18f4e207e383de693ee4b5ef9$$31 000007536 905__ $$a/rest/prod/x3/46/d4/73/x346d473s 000007536 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:7536$$pstudent-work 000007536 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
