Zapping the brain to reveal hidden cannabis risks

NCT ID NCT06907979

First seen Nov 10, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS can change how people with severe cannabis use disorder recognize their own problems with cannabis. Twenty-four regular cannabis users will undergo brain scans, EEG, and three types of TMS to see if altering activity in a specific brain region affects their awareness of cannabis-related harms. The goal is to understand the brain mechanisms behind problem recognition, not to treat the disorder directly.
