Research summary

Olivier J. Manzoni studies how the brain's cannabinoid system and synaptic connections shape behavior, particularly in the prefrontal cortex and reward-related circuits. His work examines how substances such as cannabis (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), and cocaine affect brain function, including effects of exposure during pregnancy and adolescence, and explores potential therapeutic uses of cannabinoids in neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. He uses animal models to investigate synaptic plasticity (how connections between neurons strengthen or weaken with experience).
