A medical laboratory (also known as clinical laboratory) is a laboratory where tests are done on clinical specimens with the purpose of getting information about a patients health in order to treat, diagnose and/or prevent disease. Medical laboratories often staff the following: Phlebotomists, Pathologists, Pathologists's assistants, Medical laboratory scientists, Medical laboratory assistants, Medical laboratory technicians, and Clinical biochemists, just to name a few.
In recent years, many countries have passed legislation regulating the use of cannabis for medical purposes. This has granted patients and clinicians access to both herbal material and cannab...

Dr. Sulak will review the evidence supporting the use of cannabis to not only treat serious disease, but to prevent them and maintain health, with practical and easy to implement dosing strat...
The use of cannabis to treat the symptoms of cancer and associated treatments is well known, but a growing body of evidence shows how cannabis can also be used as a direct anticancer agent. I...
There are currently 33 states and the District of Columbia that have legalized medical marijuana. The research supporting its medical use, however, lags behind current policy efforts. This ta...
