Friday, February 26, 2021
Dr.
Andrew
Doxey
along
with
MacMaster
University
Scientists
and
University
of
Waterloo
PhD
Student
Jennifer
Aguiar
have
3D
printed
a
live
model
that's
capable
of
replicating
the
impact
of
smoking
cannabis
on
the
human
lung.
The
team
has
been
able
to
accurately
map
the
body’s
adverse
responses
to
the
recreational
drug.
Following
their
initial
success,
the
researchers
have
now
made
their
cannabis-monitoring
device
open-source,
with
the
aim
of
enabling
wider
research
to
take
place
into
widening
the
legalization
of
marijuana.
