What was said

"I published a study on a thousand marijuana users every area of their brain is i know them all in activity and i get so much engagement when i post about marijuana and people go oh you just need to get high an independent group on another thousand marijuana users that learning and memory centers lower in activity."

Dr Daniel Amen tells Bill Maher he published a study of 1,000 marijuana users which he says showed reduced activity across brain areas, and he cites an “independent group” analysis of another 1,000 users that he says found lower activity in learning and memory centres.
