And what do we really know about sex differences when it comes to alcohol consumption and alcohol effects? “These are important questions, particularly in light of recent NIH-wide efforts to address sex differences in preclinical research,” notes NIAAA Director George F. Koob, Ph.D. “Some of the basics are well-established, but animal models of alcohol addiction reveal significant differences between males and females, and we have little data thus far to help us understand those differences.”
