How does addiction affect our physical and mental health? What happens inside the body, and how much do we really understand about its long-term effects?

Join us for our monthly Speaker Series at JCC Buffalo as Dr. James Paul explores the science behind addiction and its impact on the human body. Using alcohol addiction as a key example, this informative discussion will examine how substance use affects vital organs and systems, including the brain, heart, liver, and nervous system.

Dr. Paul will also address common misconceptions, the challenges of recovery, and how understanding the science behind addiction can help reduce stigma. Whether you're curious about the human body or looking to separate fact from fiction, this engaging presentation offers valuable insights for everyone.
