Best Answer

There is no commonly accepted term to describe the study of marijuana. Botanists study plants and pharmacologist study the development of drugs. Specifically, phanergamology is the study of plants that produce flowers as the Cannabis genus does. All of these fields fall under the category of Biochemistry. If you want to study marijuana, you would have to pick a concentration and then pick a specific subject to study, such as marijuana.

How would you become a medical marijuana study trial patient?

There is no such thing as a medical marijuana "study trial" patient. If you live in a state that has legalized marijuana for medical purposes then you need to go to www.weedtracker.com and find a doctor that can write you a recommendation for you. In California at least this is a very common and easy thing to do. The cost is around $100 for a year's recommendation. If you don't live in a state that has legalized marijuana for medical use you should 1) move 2) get it legalized in your state 3) try to start your own "study trial" program. Good luck getting a permit from the DEA though.
