This Project Grant award from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), under the Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs (CFDA 93.279), provides $1,980,270 to the Regents of the University of Minnesota to conduct an observational study on the neurobehavioral impacts of medical cannabis use. The study aims to assess cognition, neural function, and substance use disorder (SUD) risk in 120 medical cannabis patients in Minnesota compared to 60 non-cannabis using controls. It will differentiate outcomes based on prescribed doses and blood concentrations of THC versus CBD. The study will measure behavioral, functional brain, and white matter microstructure outcomes at baseline and after 4 months of treatment. It seeks to determine whether impairments seen in young recreational cannabis users are also evident in medical cannabis users and how outcomes vary by age and cannabinoid exposure. This research will yield insights into the neurobehavioral effects of medical cannabis use in adults.
