The objectives of the group are to study the acute and chronic pharmacological and tòxic  effects caused by substance abuse in humans.  The members of the group are mostly physicians at the Germans Trias i Pujol Hospital responsible for daily patient care."

Líneas de investigación

The three mains lines of research are:

• Evaluation of the acute effects of new psychoactive substances (synthetic cathinones such as mephedrone, synthetic cannabinoids, phyenylamines like 2-CB, methylone and alpha-PVP)
• Evaluation of the acute and chronic effects of binge alcohol consumption in young people and its combination with other substances (cannabis, energy drinks)
• Evaluation of the effects of cannabis and its components, including its possible therapeutic use  (medicinal cannabis)

In all three lines, this evaluation includes pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics and metabolic aspects and biomarkers associated with consumption.

Members of the Group

The members of the group are research and clinical staff of the Addiction Unit within the Internal Medicine Service of the Germans Trias i Pujol Hospital, who are all affiliated to the IGTP.
