Where the wild thoughts grow. Wonderful inaugural lecture by Professor Gemma Modinos Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience

Cannabis is addictive and the withdrawal syndrome can have serious clinical implications. But since its onset is slow and the symptoms overlap with those seen in acute psychiatric disorders, doctors often miss it. Check out my latest study here:👇

CBD is good right? Errr maybe not... In this RCT, I gave high doses of THC 🌿 to people with schizophrenia. Pre-treatment with CBD did not reduce the effects... but doubled them! 🤯 Sometimes I'm not sure that science is for me 🤡.

1/ Just out in Nature Medicine : we show the opioid system modulates ketamine’s effects in major depressive disorder, with naltrexone pre‑treatment reducing acute glutamatergic activity and acute antidepressant effects. nature.com/articles/s4159…
