From your comment "In the past I have been very slow to get personality back" you might be interested in talking to someone about where you are at. I recommend ADIS who has a regional WA free call number and can advise you on services available in your area, assuming you stay in Western Australia:
WA Alcohol & Drug Information Service (ADIS)
Perth: 08 9442 5000
Regional WA: 1800 198 024
A 24-hour, confidential telephone service that provides information, counselling, referral and advice.
As minxxxy has commented, it would be unusual to find researchers able/willing to do this kind of work. Having said that, there are neuro researchers who do studies of brains of methamphetamine users. Here's an article from one of them: pdf
My 2 cents: if you are concerned about brain levels of dopamine, I'd recommending seeking treatment and taking a break from using. This will give you a better sense of where you are at and a chance for the body to detox.
Good luck!
