Marijuana compounds and memory study
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how THC (the main active ingredient in marijuana) and CBD (a non-psychoactive compound) affect memory. You'd receive either THC, CBD, or a placebo and then have your brain scanned with an MRI. It's designed for people who have used marijuana occasionally but are otherwise healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at how cannabis affects thinking and mood. If you join, you'll have a session where you use cannabis and then do some thinking and mood tasks, to see how it affects you.
This study follows people who currently or used to smoke cannabis to see how cannabis use may change certain MRI scan signals in the brain over time. You may help researchers understand the effects of cannabis smoking and how brain imaging changes can be measured safely.
This study tests how a natural compound found in plants, called myrcene, affects the body's response to THC (the active ingredient in cannabis). It may help us understand how these substances work together.
This study looks at the brains of teenagers who use cannabis using an MRI scanner. It aims to understand how cannabis affects the developing brain, which might help improve treatment options.
This study looks at how a single dose of a cannabis-like medicine (dronabinol) affects the brain using brain scans (MRI and PET). It might help us learn more about how cannabis affects young adults who use it occasionally, which could guide future treatments for conditions like depression or chronic pain.
This study looks at how CBD (a compound in cannabis that doesn't get you high) affects a fixed dose of THC (the part that does) in healthy adults. It aims to see if CBD can change how the body processes THC and how it makes you feel, which might help in future treatments.
