@jenny_sjo @cbotmebot So soon but the pandemic has everything on hold anyway so 🤷

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@jenny_sjo @cbotmebot Nope.

In a Q&A, Judith Booth, a Graduate Student in the @BohlmannLab talks about Cannabis research in Canada https://t.co/IGFTXI6jyE @BotanoCan @GenomeBC #CannabisResearch #ubcmsl

How has Cannabis research changed since legalization? Graduate Student in the @BohlmannLab, Judith Booth, talks about her latest review on the characterization of #terpenes in Cannabis and the future prospects of this field of research https://t.co/IGFTXHOIH6 @BotanoCan @GenomeBC

@trichomics @AnandiaLabs @BohlmannLab Yes please, will wear with pride

@cbotmebot @LightsCameraPod So much lost potential

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

#wallex what is the role of gender in emotive robots? People interpret faces partly in the context of perceived gender. Do robots need to present masc. or fem, and do you need to adapt how they express emotion?

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics @TashRyz Can't argue with that.

We need more research that isn't tied directly to industry interests. I feel like Canada should be leading on this...

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

Question(s) for my #cannabis tweeps: what can researchers do to help standardize products? How can industrial partners work with researchers toward defining genotypes/chemotypes?

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics 😡

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics It would be terrible for everyone including researchers if it all stays proprietary and ill-defined.

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics I'm always mostly just thinking about research, since that's the weird tiny world I live in. I see cool stuff but I never know if I have something new or not. I want something I can search to know how excited I should be.

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics I still think there's a place for it in product development. Say I find a seed and grow it, and it has weird terpenes. How can I help breeders/producers/other researchers use what I found? Or maybe this weird strain is already for sale somewhere - how could I find out?

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics Good point. It's a totally unnecessary expense for consumers.

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@superkash Does an affogato count? That's my #1 ice cream/drink combo.

[Judy KB @BotanoCan]

@ChimeraGenetics For consumers I totally agree. What about from the perspective of growers and researchers? For people like you and me, it's useful to know whether we're working with the same genotype, no?
