Depending on who you listen to, cannabis is either a relaxing, benign herb that not only will not hurt its users, but has some wide-ranging health benefits - or a toxic drug that can affect psychological development, even leading to psychosis.

But what is actually happening to the brain? What are the long-term health effects? How are cannabinoids helping with pain management? Should we decriminalize cannabis? And what are the costs to society?

The Melbourne Neuroscience Institute invites you to join an array of experts including Professor Emeritus David Penington AC and Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius to discuss everything from the case for decriminalisation of cannabis, to the use of cannabinoids for pain management.
