OverviewAI-generated summary

Morgan L. Ferretti's research focuses on the pharmacological and psychological effects of cannabinoids, particularly cannabidiol (CBD). Ferretti has investigated the impact of CBD on anxiety and worry in various populations, including college students and individuals with high trait anxiety, through double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trials. Additional studies have examined the use patterns and perceived effects of other cannabis products, such as hexahydrocannabinol (HHC), and the likelihood of positive urine screens following the use of full-spectrum hemp extracts. Ferretti has also explored the effects of CBD on menstrual-related symptoms. Collaborations include work with Ellen W. Leen‐Feldner, L. Riley Gournay, Parker A. Williams, and Daniella A. Fernandez, with shared publications indicating an active research network. Ferretti's work contributes to understanding the therapeutic potential and usage patterns of cannabinoids.
