CANNABIS

Aims & Scope

Cannabis is an open access peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the scientific study of marijuana/cannabis from a multidisciplinary perspective. Consistent with the mission of the Research Society on Marijuana (RSMj), the journal publishes empirical research of the determinants, correlates, consequences, contexts, and assessment of marijuana use as well as the treatment of problematic marijuana use, including cannabis use disorder. The journal covers research across the human spectrum (note that we currently do not accept animal model research). The journal seeks to publish the following (but not limited to these topics specifically): translational research at the chemical/biological level etiological mechanisms of use issues related to clinical factors (i.e., diagnosis) medical relevance (i.e., treatment effects/implications) clinical trials social and behavioral aspects of use (both positive and negative) sociopolitical, economic, legal, ethical, and regulatory issues. We call for more research to be published in Cannabis that focuses on diverse populations and topics, including sexual and gender diverse groups, racial/ethnic minority samples, and studies focused on diversity, equity, inclusion, belongingness, discrimination, and social justice.
