Chief Science Officer, Ari Mackler 
PHOTO COURTESY: PLUS

I love to learn about individuals who are involved in the cannabis industry from a scientific standpoint. These individuals offer something to the craft of cannabis that artists are unable to do. I say artist because I consider the growers to be the artists in the equation of cannabis. The scientists have the really interesting role. They understand, at a core level the reason why cannabis is so important as a medicinal. These individuals are keyed into the innovation behind the plant, from a purely scientific standpoint. So interesting! And now, without further delay, may I please introduce Ari Mackler, CSO, Plus Products. Cheers, WB
