About This Study
The aim of the research protocol is to evaluate cannabinoid-glutamate interactions in humans. As part of this aim the investigators will assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of NMDA antagonist, ketamine, and the cannabinoid, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), in healthy adult subjects, and characterize the interactive effects of ketamine and THC on various electrophysiological (EEG), cognitive, and behavioral outcomes.

Weight of 100 kg (220.46 lbs.) or less (inclusive). Exclusion Criteria: 1. Unstable serious medical conditions. At the discretion of the investigator, subjects with unstable medical conditions that may necessitate changes in medical treatment and hence influence study outcomes will be excluded. 2.
