Event Overview:
The rapid growth of the cannabis industry has provided a rare opportunity for scientists to be part of an emerging field. With that expansion, concerns related to the growth, extraction, and chemical analysis of cannabis have also increased. As new jurisdictions allow for cannabis, a disparate and constantly evolving compliance world has been created. Ideas for leveraging the research capabilities of academics to enhance problem solving and workflow optimization when working with the cannabis industry will be presented.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Strategies for building a strong team in a cannabis facility
- Approaches for addressing challenges of cannabis analysis
- Understanding the intersection of product quality and safety
Who Should Attend:
- Future or current cannabis lab managers
- Future or current cannabis testing lab analysts and chemists
- Entrepreneurs considering starting a cannabis testing lab

Cannabis genetics fundamentally dictate the plant's potential for chemical signatures, including cannabinoid and terpene profiles, and physical traits, such as yield. Cultivators use selective techniques, such as "stacking," to enhance specific compounds. Ultimately, successful cultivation involves balancing superior genetics with environmental "levers" to optimize gene expression and create targeted strains.
