Specifically, she studies the effects of cannabis use on addiction and other health outcomes. Her goal is to conduct research that can inform decision-making among the public, patients, and clinicians regarding evidence-based decisions to use or not use cannabis for recreational or medical purposes. Her work has been featured in media outlets throughout the world, including Reuters, NPR’s Science Friday, and the BBC.
