What if you could R&D a cannabis product or cultivate a strain knowing the precise effects a specific cannabinoid or terpene would provide a person based on scientific evidence? You can.

Our latest guest is  Israel Gasperin, the CEO of Zentrela, a scientific research company using EEG and AI technology to measure the brain waves of a cannabis user as a way to understand the impact of cannabis on the brain and how it alters a person's mood.

Brands are using the technology to provide scientifically backed evidence on how specific cannabinoids and terpenes can affect a person by using their products. It will be a game-changer for breeders and product developers looking to provide a particular effect to their consumers.

The technology is groundbreaking for cannabis brands, breeders, and cultivators. Pax used it to prove the efficacy of the entourage effect in their rosin-based products.
