Dr. Justin Strickland received his Ph.D. from the University of Kentucky in 2019 in the field of behavioral pharmacology. His current research focuses on using human laboratory techniques to understand the behavioral and pharmacological mechanisms contributing to substance use disorders. He utilizes an interdisciplinary approach that combines  techniques and theoretical perspectives used in the experimental analysis of behavior, neuroscience, and behavioral economics. He is particularly interested in the role that exteroceptive and interoceptive drug cues play in the development of substance use disorders and their resistance to treatment interventions.
