Welcome to Season 3 of the Cannabiz Conversation podcast! In this exciting episode, host Sean dives deep into the world of cannabis science with two incredible guests: Dr. Allison Justice and Dr. Riley Kirk.
Join us as we explore their unique cannabis origin stories, from Allison's late-blooming experience in Amsterdam to Riley's early introduction to the plant in Maine. They share their journeys through academia and the cannabis industry, discussing the challenges and triumphs of conducting research in a rapidly evolving field.
In the first half of the episode, we touch on the stigma surrounding cannabis, the importance of consumer safety, and the complexities of navigating regulations in the industry. Both guests emphasize the need for patience as they work to bridge the gap between scientific research and real-world consumer experiences.
Stay tuned for the second half, where we delve into the "Science of Smokability," a groundbreaking project that aims to understand the nuances of cannabis consumption.
