Cannabis Science Conference returns to Oregon
Cannabis Science Conference, an event focusing on analytical science, medical cannabis, cultivation and psychedelics, announced the return of their event to Portland, Oregon, on April 19-21, 2023.
“Portland, Oregon is a natural fit for our Spring 2023 Cannabis Science Conference, with its established cannabis and medical markets, and openness toward emerging markets such as psychedelics,” says Megan L’Heureux, spokesperson for CSC, and the group editorial director of Cannabis Science and Technology and Cannabis Patient Care magazines. “CSC’s goal is to spread information and empowerment through education, and we are bringing a hard-hitting team of professional experts to share knowledge and have in-depth conversations about how to move these niche industries forward. We look forward to tackling topics like using psychedelics and medical cannabis to help veterans and other patient demographics as well as our core topic areas focused on analytical testing and cultivation. Our agenda will hit every topic our audience has been asking to learn more about.”
The agenda will include four main program tracks, with professional expert chairs including analytical chair Julie Kowalski Ph.D., a technical consultant serving the cannabis and hemp testing markets, Cultivation chair Zacariah L. Hildenbrand Ph.D., who sits on the editorial advisory board of cannabis science and technology, medical chair Cherissa Jackson, who served 23 years of active-duty military service with 10 years as a US.. Air Force nurse, and psychedelics chair Dr. Denise Vidot, an epidemiologist at the University of Miami where she is founder of the International Cannabis & Psychedelic Research Collaborative.
