Dr. Michelle Peace is an internationally recognized forensic toxicologist and a Full Professor in the Department of Forensic Science at Virginia Commonwealth University. The National Institute of Justice has funded her team to study the proliferation of semi-synthetic THC analogs in the unregulated market and define their relevant biomarkers. Her work impacts public health and public safety policies and initiatives.

At CannMed 25 Michelle will present “Why Some People “Green Out”? The Analysis of Unregulated “Hemp-derived” Cannabis Products”.

All the products they analyzed were mislabeled in some way, either misrepresenting the cannabinoids contained therein or their concentrations.
