In a clinical laboratory, tests are done on patient specimens, such as blood, biopsies, and other bodily fluids, to gather information regarding the general health, aiding in diagnosis and potential treatment or disease prevention.
The legalization of recreational cannabis has brought several challenges for cannabis extractors. Due to the increased scrutiny, they are required to get the product tested for an entire hos...
Learning Objectives: 1. What states will begin requiring mandatory testing for cannabis this year? 2. What states have recently changed their testing regulations? What states are looking to...
Healthcare providers are increasingly being asked from their patients for advice and recommendations for the use of cannabis in all types of conditions and disease states. One of the most ch...
The objective of this study was to produce a fast, accurate, and precise method for analyzing terpenes in hemp using headspace/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Modern interest in terpen...
With the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill legalizing hemp, farmers are allowed to grow hemp. Like any other agricultural crop, pesticides are applied to hemp plants to protect it from pests and...
Explore the world of the vaping through a presentation whereas science, politics, and culture collide. Dr. Marcu guides you through a nuanced discussion of why the vaping crisis curve seems...
In the post prohibition era, a vacuum of regulations, standards, and best practices is quickly being filled. Learn how those who truly care about the cannabis industry are acting through exi...
Given that the hemp industry in the United States is still nascent, certified seed offers American farmers a way to minimize the risk of growing hemp. For hemp, certification carries additio...
Here we present a case study on the combined use of cannabis, psilocybin, and conventional oncology treatments which induced remission in a stage IV metastatic breast cancer patient. A 49-ye...
Vaporizing cannabis concentrates is increasing in popularity as a potentially healthier alternative to smoking. However, little is known about the chemical profiles of aerosolized concentrat...
Every cannabis variety has unique genetics, but the plant's potential is limited by its environment. Manipulating inputs and modifying the environment is the most effective way to maximi...

Working memory (the ability to hold some information in mind for a few seconds, and to manipulate that information) and decision-making (committing to one out of multiple possible choices) a...
Identifying the diversity of neuronal cell types of the nervous system is one of the main objectives of the BRAIN Initiative, with the vision that distinct neuronal identities will allow for...
Learning is often an emotional process. Emotional stimuli with different valences, such as threat and reward, can transform an otherwise neutral sensory input into one that can trigger disti...
Episodic memories are essential for human cognition, but the underlying neural mechanisms remain poorly understood. We utilize the opportunity to record in-vivo from human single neurons sim...
Neurodegenerative disease research can be considerably accelerated by using fibrillar or oligomeric constructs of prion-like proteins in in vitro or in vivo studies. These exist in a variety...
Mechanistic understanding of neural systems is daunting to achieve in large part due to the heterogeneity of the neuronal elements in both form and function and the complexity of the circuit...
Brain machine interfaces (BMIs) aim to help patients with paralysis to use their recorded brain activity to control assistive devices. BMI research requires the collaboration of neuroscienti...
Approximately 300,000 people in the United States have a spinal cord injury with many of these individuals experiencing permanent motor and sensory deficits. For individuals with cervical sp...
The accumulation of neurotoxic amyloid beta peptides and/or neurofibrillary tangle formation are key pathological hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases including but not limited to Alzheim...
