The forum included researchers from universities, representatives from government agencies, and a host of industry experts Presentations, panels, and posters covered the scientific, medical, industrial, legal, economic, and social elements of cannabis research.
To ensure the relevance and depth of content of the Institute of Cannabis Research Conference 2019, the conference committee solicited session proposals from external researchers to complement those from CSU Pueblo researchers, thus allowing the cannabis research community to help shape the conference program.
In addition, a significant vetting and review process was put in place to ensure high-quality and cutting-edge research studies and efforts. Another first for the ICR Conference is the inclusion of research sponsors and exhibitor opportunities geared toward better serving the research and industry community attendees as well as making the conference a more sustainable event.
