Dr. Kaye’s research on tobacco and other substance use disorders focuses on understanding mechanisms that maintain addiction and using this knowledge to develop and implement more effective treatments. He examines psychological and neurobiological processes related to risk, etiology, and treatment common across addictive disorders. His research on tobacco addiction specifically aims to enhance smoking cessation treatment for populations who bear greater consequences from smoking, such as those who: use other substances (e.g., alcohol, cannabis); live with mental illness; have chronic pain; have cancer; or are incarcerated. His research has been funded by the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, National Science Foundation, and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services.
