Impact of chronic cannabis oil self-administration on neural circuitry in human obesity: a fMRI study
EF 2018-19
Résumé
Obesity is a global health concern. Evidence shows an association between cannabis consumption and body weight. The aim of the present proposal is to determine the effect of chronic self-administration of cannabis oil versus placebo oil on the brain reward circuitry in human obesity. A greater understanding of the effects of cannabis in the obesogenic state, may potentially inform the development of intervention strategies for obesity.
