RavenQuest Partner McGill University Secures Cannabis License
26 September 2019 - 8:00PM
RavenQuest BioMed Inc. (CSE: RQB OTCQB: RVVQF Frankfurt:
1IT) (the “
Company” or
“
RavenQuest”), one of Canada’s most innovative
cannabis producers, is pleased to announce that its research
partner, McGill University, has received a license from Health
Canada which allows for the possession and production of cannabis
for research purposes.
The license allows RavenQuest and McGill to
continue important research around the cannabis plant. The
research continues to focus on cultivar recognition, plant
stabilization, yield maximization and disease resistance of the
cannabis plant.
RavenQuest CEO, George Robinson, commented that
“throughout our partnership with McGill, research has thus far
uncovered several key beneficial microbes which have shown
significant potential to improve yield and disease
resistance. The Health Canada license will allow RavenQuest
and McGill to confirm our findings by applying the microbes
directly to the cannabis plant.”
“RavenQuest’s foundation is grounded in science
and innovation. As a company, we have always maintained that large
scale Cannabis producers need to develop non-GMO methods to produce
genetically consistent, disease resistant and biologically stable
plant material that will meet pharmaceutical standards for
clinicians to conduct medical research trials. With the
granting of this license, the research we are conducting with our
partners at McGill moves us even closer toward that end,” Robinson
continued.
