FROM ANECDOTE
TO EVIDENCE
Our mission is to conduct and share high-quality research on cannabis used for medical purposes in children informed by patients, parents, healthcare practitioners, policy makers, and the scientific community.
C4T is an academic research team made up of parents, doctors and scientists assembled to study medical cannabis in children. Our goal is to move cannabis use from the era of anecdote to evidence. C4T collaborates globally to study when and if medical cannabis can provide a safe and effective therapy for children.
