UBC and Tilray partner for Canada’s first PTSD cannabis study

UBC Okanagan and Tilray, a Health Canada Licensed Producer under the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR), will conduct the country’s first clinical trial to evaluate the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis as treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Pending regulatory approvals, the UBC-Tilray 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.
The Phase II, placebo-controlled, randomized, triple blind, crossover clinical trial will gather evidence about the safety and efficacy of different medical cannabis strain combinations to manage chronic, treatment-resistant PTSD symptoms resulting from trauma experienced by veterans, first responders, and sexual assault survivors. Chronic PTSD symptoms include flashbacks, anxiety, depression, anger, irritability, and changes in sleep and appetite.
“Even with current treatments, many patients continue to struggle with the debilitating effects of PTSD,” says Associate Professor Zach Walsh, the principal investigator for the study, a clinical psychologist, and co-director of the UBC Centre for the Advancement of Psychological Science and Law in the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences.
“There is promising preclinical and anecdotal evidence supporting the potential of medical cannabis to alleviate PTSD symptoms, particularly among veterans. We have an ethical responsibility to examine all possible treatment options to ease their suffering.”

One good thing that has come from the MMPR is research. I know that the companies are discreetly trying to gain a client base by exposing some of the medical uses and its just something for them to point at, but it's also something for us to point at, whether its for medical validity, or when it comes time to discuss legalization when Trudeau ends up in charge. (fingers crossed)

I can tell you that much of the research is a thin veil over efficiency research, lighting research, etc.
Expect to see marijuana grown in boxes, stacked to the ceiling in a warehouse by the end of 2016.

Grown in boxes....not much craft in that.....mass produced mediocre weed at best....gonna good for small growers and folks who want real quality grown craft weeds.
You see Oddish that is the point many of us try to make here...no love in = no love out

It's like they think mmj users have never smoked anything amazing before and just don't know any better. How the fuck do they think most of us figured out pot isn't just for shits and giggles? Most doctors won't even bring it up if you don't let alone recommend it.

They will never compete with craftsmanship. Even with other things the best are produce by one person who knows what to do. I'm sure they'll produce smoke-able meds but it will still be mass produced mid grade.
One thing I do know about med user and rec users, they always want the best. Most rec users I know are " connoisseurs "
