High schoolers use e-cigarettes to vape marijuana: U.S. study

Yahoo News via Reuters - Quotes Dustin Lee, postdoctoral fellow in the department of psychiatry, on a recent study which found that nearly one in five high school students in Connecticut who said they used electronic cigarettes to vaporize nicotine also used them to vaporize marijuana. "We know very little about the acute and long-term effects of high-potency THC on neurobiology and behavior," says Lee, who was not involved in the study. "This is especially concerning for teens, who are in a critical time for development of brain structures that are integral in executive functioning."
