The University of Mississippi, long known as the sole institution federally authorized to cultivate marijuana for research, is stepping into a new leadership role with the launch of a major cannabis research initiative. Backed by a federal grant, the university will host the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) newly formed Resource Center for Cannabis and […]
There was a time where Eaze was a promise of the future for the marijuana industry. It got in right before California legalized recreational marijuana and was primed to be the frontrunner in that space. And that’s pretty much what happened for a bit, but that big, infinite future that seemed inevitable never really came […]
Starting the tech companies who have donated and appeared at the inauguration, it’s clear people are catching on to what works in order to get Trump’s attention. The key ingredient is flattery. That seems to be the method of a Political Action Committee who have just released an ad that blasts Biden as the “deep-state” […]
A study was just published that analyzed data from over 10,000 other studies in order to make a gigantic meta-analysis that has pretty much shut the door on where we stand with cannabis benefits when it comes to cancer patients. This is 10 times more than the last consensus study that was published in regards […]

As cannabis continues to become more and more legal and attracts bigger businesses, we continue to see just how many ways it can be consumed. At this point most of us have our way of choice, and a report by the CDC is showing that more and more people are choosing an alternative to smoking. […]
Cannabis businesses and ancillary companies are scrambling to adapt after former President Donald Trump’s sudden imposition—and partial reversal—of sweeping global tariffs sent shockwaves through the economy and jolted cannabis supply chains. Trump’s “Liberation Day” announcement, aimed at upending longstanding U.S. trade policies, slapped hefty tariffs on goods from nearly 90 countries. Though a temporary 90-day […]
Researchers at UBC Okanagan have taken it upon themselves to make a standardized system of cannabis doses. This has been extremely tricky over the years because of the many ways in which people consume marijuana. How can you equate a puff of a spliff with a small little piece of a weed brownie? The Index […]
It’s been a year since Germany legalized marijuana, which was a big deal for the EU. It’s the third country to do so behind Malta and Luxembourg, but by far the biggest. The way they enacted the legalization was a bit strange: instead of being able to buy weed in a store, you had to […]
