REQUEST FOR RESEARCH PARTICIPANTS AT CSU Who is conducting the study and what is this study about? Researchers from the psychology department at Colorado State University are recruiting participants for a study to examine how cannabis use impacts alcohol consumption, and how both of these substances impact the gut, the brain and behavior What will I be asked to do? You will be asked to attend a virtual consent and information session (~30 min). A laboratory appointment will take place 2 weeks later at our lab on campus (for ~1.5 hrs) where you will provide a small blood sample and complete several questionnaires. During the two weeks between sessions, we will ask you to complete a short daily survey (3 minutes/day) about your substance use and mood, and collect a simple microbiome sample. You can earn up to $73 for participating in all aspects of the study. Who can join this study? You can participate in this study if you are an adult (age 21-60) who drinks alcohol or uses cannabis regularly. We are also looking for control subjects who do not currently use alcohol or cannabis. Why should I join this study? This study serves to benefit the public by increasing our understanding of how cannabis use impacts the brain and body. The study will also give you a chance to examine your own substance use behavior. How do I join this study?
