Episode Synopsis

Weed, Pot, Mary Jane, Dope, Janga, the Devil's Lettuce!! By now, we’re all familiar with what these names are referring to. The cannabis industry is growing worldwide and so is the presence of cannabis-related content on social media. Despite the hype, there is surprisingly little evidence for a beneficial effect of cannabis in humans. In fact, in some cases, it causes more harm than good. So how does cannabis REALLY impact the brain? Which therapeutic claims are actually backed by science? And what are the safety risks? We explore it all in the 3-part series on the neuroscience of cannabis.
