Cannabis Studies at risk due to Trump’s Research Cuts

President Trump and DOGE have plans to cut research done at the Federal level through the NIH. The proposal would cap indirect costs at 15%, down from 56% of funding. This plan is currently being blocked by a judge in Boston, but this could only be temporary.

These changes would severely affect research being done in the cannabis field. There are 565 ongoing experiments happening now dealing with cannabis, according to MJBizDaily.

One professor at the University of Colorado Boulder says that without funding indirect costs of their research, “I literally cannot do my research.”

Research has been extremely important in the cannabis industry, considering that we haven’t had much to go on for decades. Accurate statistics help combat any misinformation that is constantly fed to the public about the plant.

Some of the studies at risk would include the largest long-term study of brain development in the US, a research center in Colorado investigating the effects of THC and CBD, and a study that examines how teenage marijuana use impairs brain function.

There is also a freeze of new NIH grants, meaning new cannabis studies cannot get off the ground any time soon.

The entire industry is in a holding pattern, bracing for the worst.
