I'm not saying this to try to discredit this or any other study, but I think it would be appropriate for publications, universities, hospitals, doctors whose names are on studies to disclose affiliations. Especially with contentious issues like marijuana.
After a brief Google search I found other studies where this same doctor (John Csernansky, MD) has linked marijuana use to "Schizophrenia-like Brain Changes".

- swatow 12y agoHow is that an "affiliation". Isn't it natural that people tend to publish on the same topic?
- datashovel 12y agoLike I said in the original comment, I'm not trying to discredit anyone or even this particular study. I'm simply seeking a more deliberate model of transparency. That also goes for studies who may claim that marijuana is healthy or "less harmful" than other products. This guy has over the course of several years come up with very damaging evidence that marijuana is irreversibly harmful to humans. To start with, to know who these studies are funded by would be helpful so I can know whether it deserves my attention.
