About

Brian Christie is a Professor at the University of Victoria in Canada. His research focuses on the effects of cannabinoids, alcohol, and other substances on synaptic plasticity and brain function, as well as the gut-brain axis and its implications for mental health. Recent publications include studies on perinatal cannabinoid effects, the role of omega-3 fatty acids, and interventions for neurological conditions such as cerebral ischemia and Fragile X Syndrome.
