Excited to share the first of Abdalla Albeely’s work on characterizing a model of cannabis withdrawal after vaporized cannabis flower exposure! In addition to being the first study to look at cannabis vapor, this also is the first time behavioral network analyses are used to characterize withdrawal!

Do humans show sex differences in brain activation? If so, are these task-specific or general — and do they relate to sex differences in brain anatomy and behavior? We dove deep into these questions in a new paper just out in Nature Communications | tinyurl.com/3rdrb524

So excited to have this out. @oparent.bsky.social led this tour de force examining white matter pathophysiology using microstructural MRI and a host of cool methods. be sure to read the summary below, and, of course, the paper. @natureportfolio.nature.com @douglasresearch.bsky.social
