The Research Subgroup comprises members from across the Cannabis and Hemp CBD sector in the UK.
The Group exists to commission and carry out research and publish research submissions to further the overall aims of the Council.
For 2022, the main focus of the Research Subgroup is to carry out a Health economic analysis, create condition-specific case studies, research into chemovar profiles in childhood epilepsy, an exploration of real-world evidence (RWE) vs RCTs and to move forward with research in carbon sequestration from hemp.
