![]() ![]() A memorial service was held at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York. PETER LEE: Marie Nyswander, medical pioneer, explorer in the field of human behavior and reliever of pain, was a distinguished American, but her death was a loss not only to her fellow countrymen, but to all, to all humanity, and particularly to those afflicted with drug abuse.ĬAROL SUTTON LEWIS: Marie Nyswander died in 1986. Again, this episode contains adult content and language, including discussions of drugs. If you haven’t heard the other episodes, you should go back to the first one and start there. KATIE HAFNER: This is the fifth episode of our season about Marie Nyswander. Neuroscientist Kent Berridge explains why wanting something isn’t the same as liking it. Addiction science has come a long way since Nyswander’s time, and it turns out that a lot of the field’s earlier assumptions were probably wrong. She’d achieved almost everything she had set out to do, but she wanted more: even better medications than methadone, fewer regulations and the holy grail-a cure for addiction. ![]()
