Happy to share that our Comprehensive Adolescent Rehabilitation and Education Service (CARES) is now in a new location where we're better equipped to help the youth of New York.
Congratulations to the team, and special shout out to CARES Director, Shilpa Taufique 🎉

I'm looking forward to speaking at Mount Sinai's Dean's Select Seminar Series on October 6.
I'll be talking about the translational efforts in addiction research that contribute to the development of treatments 🧠

We are long overdue for more research on the benefits and risks of #cannabis use. While this research is in progress, we certainly need better policy for product standards and public education.

Our research shows the impact of #cannabis on the developing brain. I spoke to Dr. Delaney Ruston about how #THC exposure in adolescent rats alters cell communication vital for cognitive function.

Thanks for chatting with me @i_am_julie_rose!
Today’s #cannabis has much more potent THC than in the past. How we think about & approach cannabis needs to change with this in mind - from policy & consumer perspectives.

Is it time to rethink how we talk about cannabis? According to @neurovoice, cannabis is a far more complex drug than we previously thought. The marijuana on today’s market is nothing like the Woodstock era, and it's causing real public health issues. Learn more with Top of Mind.

🤔 Today’s #cannabis products are shaped largely by commercial interests, which means consumer health & wellbeing isn’t always the top priority.
I encourage consumers to evaluate these products & know the potential risks.
