A patient who was cured after showing Olivier Ameisen’s The End of My Addiction to his general practitioner insisted on meeting Ameisen after a lecture he gave in Amsterdam. Out of gratitude, the patient donated an anonymous gift of $750,000 to the University of Amsterdam to conduct the clinical trial of high-dose baclofen Ameisen had called for since 2004. Dr. Reinout Wiers will conduct the trial in early 2011 under Ameisen’s guidance.
