We’re pleased to announce a partnership with the University of British Columbia to conduct the country’s first clinical trial evaluating the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis as treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Pending regulatory approvals, the study is poised to be one of the first in the world to run a large-scale clinical trial examining medical cannabis as a treatment for a mental health disorder.

Study participants will include 40 men and women who meet clinical criteria for PTSD due to trauma experienced during military service, as a first responder, or as the result of sexual assault.

The trial is expected to launch in early summer 2015, pending necessary regulatory approvals, and is scheduled to conclude in late 2016.
