When we talk about crafting the best cannabis products, we often focus on extraction and preserving key compounds. But what happens in the curing process is just as crucial—if not more—when it comes to manipulating and enhancing a strain's unique characteristics.

Joe Edwards knows a lot about this and has engineered decontamination and curing technology for Yofumo where he is the chief science officer. He is a biochemist, engineer, and expert on various agricultural systems and operations. He has won multiple awards for his post-harvest curation methodologies. Join us as we geek out and get deep into the weeds of curing.

Johns Hopkins University, renowned for its world-class medical program, established the Cannabis Science Lab (CSL) a number of years ago, but its research has become increasingly critical as the US government continues to neglect its duty in this area, hindering the industry's growth and economic development. Armed with a Schedule 1 research license, access to state-of-the-art cognitive testing equipment, an in-house pharmacy capable of formulating various products, and a reliable supply of high-quality cannabis flower and extracts, the Lab is well-equipped to conduct rigorous investigations.

Today our guest is Professor Ryan Vandrey, one of the esteemed professors, researchers, and scientists leading research at the Lab. We talk about their latest studies and the major consumer observational study they are about to ramp up.
