CU Boulder: A Hub for Cannabis Research

Cutting-edge research is being conducted at the University of Colorado at Boulder, headed up by Professor Kent Hutchison PhD. A story on Health Europa outlines Dr. Hutchison’s cannabis research and ongoing projects and features an interview with Hutchison, who recently served on the National Academy of Sciences committee.

At the forefront of Dr. Hutchison’s accomplishments is an online course he developed, about the medical applications of cannabis, forming the Center for Research and Education Addressing Cannabis and Health (CU REACH). The CU Boulder professor is also the principal researcher on three cannabis studies examining the effects of cannabis product use. The studies look at the different effects of CBD, THC/CBD, and THC products on anxiety and pain.
