Project
Fetal Alcohol Exposure and Endogenous Cannabinoid Signaling
Principal Investigator(s): Dr. Joanne Weinberg, Professor and Assistant Head, Department of Cellular and Physiological Sciences, UBC, phone: 604-822-6214, email: jweinberg@exchange.ubc.ca
Start/End Date: June 1, 2007 – May 31, 2009
Location: UBC, Vancouver, BC
Brief Description: This project will investigate the hypothesis that prenatal ethanol exposure results in long-lasting alterations in endocannabinoid (eCB)/cannabinoid (CB1) receptor signaling in brain, and of the interaction between the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the eCB system.
