🔍 Insight
into the Presentation
Drug addiction is not just a behavioral problem—it’s a condition that
reshapes the brain and affects every aspect of a person’s life.
In his keynote address, Dr. Jacob Barg from Ashkelon
Academic College, Israel, explores how prolonged drug use leads to irreversible
brain damage, disrupting essential neural pathways responsible for
decision-making, motivation, and emotional control.
Dr. Barg highlights the social, psychological, and medical
consequences of addiction. Socially, individuals face isolation, strained
relationships, and job instability. Psychologically, addiction fuels anxiety,
mood disorders, and cognitive decline. Medically, it contributes to
cardiovascular and liver diseases and increases vulnerability to infections
such as Hepatitis and AIDS.
His research underscores how chronic drug use alters brain structure
and neurotransmitter balance, leading to reduced brain volume and long-term
cognitive impairment. The extent of brain damage depends on several factors — including
the type of drug, duration of use, age, and overall health condition.
This talk aims to deepen our understanding of how addiction reshapes the
brain and why early intervention and long-term recovery strategies are
essential to restore both mind and body.
