He obtained his Ph.D. in 2000 from the University of British Columbia and engaged in post-doctoral studies at the University of Pittsburgh until 2003. His research interests focus on neural circuits that facilitate different forms of learning and cognition, with a particular interest in the interactions between different brain regions within the mesocorticolimbic dopamine system that facilitate cognitive processes, such as behavioural flexibility, cost/benefit decision making and reward-related learning. A complementary aspect of his work deals with modelling dysfunction in these brain circuits and corresponding impairments in different forms of cognition associated with different diseases, such as stimulant addiction, schizophrenia and depression. Markus Heilig, Linköping, Sweden, USA
 Markus Heilig received his MD and PhD from Lund University, Sweden, 1986 and 1989, resp. His early work identified anti-stress actions of neuropeptide Y. He was a post-doc at The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 1990 - 1992. Upon returning to Sweden and completing clinical training in psychiatry, he served at the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden, in various clinical and academic leadership capacities until 2004. At this time he became the chief of intramural clinical and translational research at the National Inst on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. Heilig's research is centered on regulation of negative effect, as it applies to affective, anxiety and addictive disorders. Current efforts are focused on identifying novel mechanisms for pharmacotherapy of addiction, and developing these from preclinical target discovery and validation to early human proof-of-concept trials.
