Impact

The Guelph Centre for Cannabis Research will provide opportunities for interested researchers, technology suppliers and licensed producers to perform high-value collaborative and multidisciplinary research at a centralized facility. Projects will include breeding and phenotype testing of strains targeted to certain animal or human disorders, extraction and analysis of medicinal compounds, development of environment control recipes for standardized production, pharmacological studies and coordination with human and animal clinical trials plus many more.

The knowledge and technologies generated from the centre will be essential for Canada’s cannabis industry and useful to other fields including indoor farming and advanced horticultural production and technologies.

Goals

To produce cannabis for medical and recreational purposes, quality and standardization are key. Canada will be one of a handful of countries globally to have legalized cannabis production and use, creating an opportunity for industry leadership. U of G is the first university in North America to have conducted legitimized research on cannabis production in controlled environments and published the results in the scientific literature, positioning us well for the Guelph Centre for Cannabis Research. 

Investment in this initiative will establish the Guelph Centre for Cannabis Research by:

  • Creating secure and certified research production facilities
  • Coordinating cannabis research on a national scale and partnering with scientists and the cannabis industry
  • Supporting multi-disciplinary research in plant genetics and horticulture, human medicine, psychology, small and large animal veterinary medicine, etc.
