The effect of cannabis use on brain function in early psychosis | C4C

  • Applicant: Musa Sami
  • Project ID: 17-064

Cannabis use is present in 30-40% patients who develop early psychosis. We want to see if there are biological differences between patients with early psychosis who use cannabis and those who do not. This is because cannabis use is known to affect brain function and regions of the brain associated with memory and emotions.
