#Cannabis #rescheduling evokes visceral responses, many of which are factually incorrect. As part of my preparation for the cannabis rescheduling panel discussion at the recent Association of Food and Drug Officials 128th annual meeting, I read an excellent textbook review chapter about the administrative PROCESS. I'll add a link to read in the comments. While it does not opine about the OUTCOMES or EFFECTS, this should be mandatory reading for anyone who has a connection to or interest in shaping the future of medical marijuana. Many thanks to Scott Bloomberg, Alex Harriman, and Shane Pennington for this helpful and timely overview. Writing a 60 page textbook chapter with relevant references is a heavy lift!

Policy position: E4 Bioscience believes that authors should follow the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors for disclosure of generative AI contributions for published materials.
How many cannabis scientists incorporate #generativeAI in their writing? Should you acknowledge use of #AI in your #cannabis posters, presentations, and publications? As a regular publisher of peer reviewed and non-peer reviewed educational content, I've always followed the guidelines put forth by the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE). I was recently reviewing the guidelines with Jamie Toth and realized that they have been updated to address just this question. A friendly reminder to my fellow authors: EXCLUDING a contributor (i.e. ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc...) suffers from the same ethical issues as INCLUDING contributor who do not meet ICMJE guidelines. Unfortunately, I'm not attending either the Emerald Conference or Cannabis Science Conference - Spring this year :( To my friends and friends to be, can you send me a pic of any poster with an AI acknowledgment?

Hop latent viroid (HLVd) infection significantly lowers the commercial value of cannabis by reducing inflorescence weight, THC concentration, and terpene production. Check out the recent E4 Bioscience educational presentation about how to mitigate HLVd infections. https://lnkd.in/gTdMBab9 If you are an experienced #cannabis cultivator, growing fire genetics, and use a trustworthy lab, but have lower yields, cannabinoid & terpene values than expected, HLVd infection is one potential cause. Many cultivators will benefit from a comprehensive #environmentalmonitoring plan and #haccp plan to mitigate infection and lay a critical foundation for future #gmp certification and financial sustainability. We can help. www.e4bioscience.com #cannabisscience #cannabisbusiness
