This article reviews the cannabis studies from the past 100+ years to come to a decision on whether or not heavy cannabis use damages the brain. They found that it does not, Heavy cannabis users perform the same as controlled (cannabis free) subjects.
Also, a lot of other research is starting to show the opposite direction that Cannabis, THC, CBD and other cannabinoids actually help protect the brain and other regulatory systems in our body.
Here are some primary articles on the many benefits of cannabis for medical treatment.
(Video Lecture) There is a really good lecture on this by the Researcher who first synthesized THC in the 70's. Explains the natural cannabinoid system, different applications for it.
Full Youtube Video of The 40 minute lecture.
