Substance use disorders (SUDs) generate the largest disease burden and are categorized by DSM-5 and ICD11. SUDs are defined by compulsive drug use, craving, and re-lapses that can occur even after [...] and stimulants. One fundamental question in psy-chiatric research is: “How distinct are the different SUDs and what are the shared pathological phenomena?” Here we aim to determine the extent to which alcohol
