We've learned a lot about how devastating opiate addiction is for families and communities but on the next Vermont Edition, we're taking the conversation about addiction to the cellular level.

Our guest is Karen Lounsbury, professor of pharmacology at the University of Vermont Larner College of Medicine, where she runs a lab that researches cellular signaling.
