In Order to Better Define the Therapeutic Mechanism of Action Using Biochemical, Cell, and Genetic Approaches

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO--(Marketwired - Jul 17, 2015) -  Cannabis Science, Inc. (OTC PINK: CBIS), and a key member of its scientific advisory board, Harold C. Smith, Ph.D., Professor in Biochemistry, Biophysics, and Oncology and the Center for RNA Biology at the University of Rochester, School of Dentistry and Medicine, have prepared the blueprint for establishing basic science exploration and explanation for medicinal benefits associated with cannabinoid products. The goal will be evaluate, through scientific proven methods, cellular responses to cannabinoids that can be correlated and eventually directly ascribed as the 'drug-targets'.

"We are entering an era of legalizing cannabis for medicinal purposes and yet unlike most prescribed drugs, we do not understand how and why these products work," says Dr. Smith. "On the other hand, drug discovery and drug development across the globe follows, and in...
