About the Waggoner Center
The Waggoner Center for Alcohol and Addiction Research brings together researchers from the Colleges of Natural Sciences, Liberal Arts, Pharmacy and the Dell Medical School to investigate alcohol and drug actions at the molecular, electrophysiological and behavioral levels.
