With support from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), our researchers are aiming to improve our understanding of brain development in adolescents 15-18 with and without cannabis use disorder. Participation will involve 8 visits across 6 weeks and participants will be compensated for their time. Visits will involve the following:
- Questionnaires
- Clinical Interviews
- Cognitive Tasks
- Functional MRI scan
- Urine Samples
Participation in this study will allow us to answer questions such as:
- What happens to the brain when teens stop using cannabis for a short period of time?
- How does adolescent brain development change among teens who use cannabis vs those who have never used cannabis?
- What behavioral factors are common among teens with cannabis use disorder?
