Canurta Presents at the Canna Pharma 2022 Conference
On October 12- 13, 2022, Canurta's CEO and Founder, Akeem Gardner, presented two abstracts at the Canna Pharma conference in San Diego, CA. The first abstract was on targeting glioblastoma invasion and survival with cannabis-derived flavonoids. The second was on developing hemp-derived active pharmaceutical ingredients through an analytical lens: carriers and barriers. Both abstracts were well received by stakeholders.
