Legalization and commercialization of cannabis have led to rapid changes in cannabis consumption in the United States. Frank’s research focuses on interventions to expand access to evidence-based treatments for substance use disorders. He will share information on changing cannabis use patterns in Michigan and the risks and benefits of cannabis, including the drug’s impact on seniors and others on cognitive function, anxiety, safe driving, and chronic pain. Additionally, he will describe harm reduction strategies to address high-risk use. Frank, a Michigan alumnus and graduate of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, is an educator and clinical consultant for U-M’s Overdose Prevention and Engagement Network, co-director of Training & Education for the U-M Opioid Research Institute, and chair of the Washtenaw County Board of Health.
