Through the program, students will have access to eight hours of medical cannabis education, including the latest scientific research on the endocannabinoid system and the known effects of cannabis on the human body.

"When I conducted my academic research on clinicians' knowledge and attitudes on medical cannabis, it became apparent many clinicians had not heard of the endocannabinoid system. The data revealed that clinicians who had never experienced cannabis firsthand viewed it much more negatively and stigmatized," noted Jan Roberts, founder of TCI.

Jan Roberts, DSW, a licensed clinical social worker and an educator at NYU Silver School of Social Work, is also a faculty advisor for NYU's CannaHealth Student Group

"We are delighted to be able to offer certification courses to NY state medical students who will be on the front line of patient care as medicinal cannabis research unlocks potential treatment options.", Roberts said
