Will Lawn,Tom P. Freeman,Rebecca A. Pope,Alyssa Joye,Lisa Harvey,Chandni Hindocha,Claire Mokrysz,Abigail Moss,Matthew B. Wall,Matthew B. Wall,Michael A P Bloomfield,Michael A P Bloomfield,Ravi K. Das,Celia J. A. Morgan,Celia J. A. Morgan,David J. Nutt,H. Valerie Curran +16 more
TL;DR: Cannabis acutely induced a transient amotivational state and CBD influenced the effects of THC on expected value, although confounding factors, including depression, cannot be disregarded.
Journal ArticleDOI
The NBOMe hallucinogenic drug series: Patterns of use, characteristics of users and self-reported effects in a large international sample
TL;DR: The NBOMe drugs have emerged recently, are frequently bought using the internet and have similar effects to other hallucinogenic drugs; however, they may pose larger risks, due to the limited knowledge about them, their relatively low price and availability via the internet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ketamine for the treatment of addiction: Evidence and potential mechanisms.
TL;DR: Preclinical and clinical research into ketamine's ability to treat addiction shows great promise as a treatment for various addictions, but well‐controlled research is urgently needed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rewriting the valuation and salience of alcohol-related stimuli via memory reconsolidation.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that well-learned cue-drinking memories can be destabilised and that learning history need not constrain memory destabilisation if PE is maximised at retrieval.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A single 800‐mg oral dose of cannabidiol reduced the salience and pleasantness of cigarette cues, compared with placebo, after overnight cigarette abstinence in dependent smokers and did not influence tobacco craving or withdrawal or any subjectively rated side effects.
