Navigating the intricacies of compliance and risk management can seem overwhelming for businesses, especially those operating in heavily regulated industries.

The study looked at the effect of cannabis use on young adults who are recent or heavy users

AURORA, Colo., Jan. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A new study published today in JAMA Network Open explores the effects of both recent and lifetime cannabis use on brain function during cognitive tasks.

The study, the largest of its kind ever to be completed, examined the effects of cannabis use on over 1,000 young adults aged 22 to 36 using brain imaging technology. The researchers found that 63% of heavy lifetime cannabis users exhibited reduced brain activity during a working memory task, while 68% of recent users also demonstrated a similar impact.
