Pioneering cannabis science to inform clinical and regulatory decisions

Who We Are

The Johns Hopkins University Cannabis Science Laboratory includes a multidisciplinary group of faculty and staff with an overall goal of empirically evaluating the behavioral pharmacology of cannabis and its constituents through rigorous preclinical (i.e., experimental rodent models) and clinical research (i.e., human laboratory studies and randomized-controlled trials).

Research at the Cannabis Science Lab is focused on rigorous  science that can inform such areas as public policy, regulation of cannabis products, patient-provider decisions regarding cannabis use, prevention and treatment of problematic cannabis use, and other key unanswered questions related to cannabis/cannabinoids.
