SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Results of a state-funded study in Utah designed to gauge marijuana's impact on pain might not be ready until after voters in the state decide on a medical marijuana ballot initiative in November.

Utah Science Technology and Research executive director Ivy Estabrooke tells the Deseret News that strict federal regulations around marijuana delayed the study for nearly a year and a half.
