Strainprint Analytics Research Platform to Help Support Canadian Government
Policies Post-Cannabis LegalizationF
TORONTO (Oct. 15 2019) – StrainprintR Technologies Ltd. (Strainprint), the leader in cannabis data and analytics is proud to announce that Health Canada has subscribed to use Strainprint Analytics to further research Canadians’ use of cannabis in the post-legalization era.
Health Canada views the legalization and regulation of all cannabis through a lens of public safety and is regarded as one of the most respected regulatory bodies in the world. Raising awareness about the health effects of cannabis through research and public education is fundamental to Health Canada’s mandate, which Strainprint’s real-world observational data is uniquely positioned to support.
Health Canada now has access to over 1.4 million anonymized patient reported outcomes (70+ million data points on real-time patient use and strain efficacy) through Strainprint Analytics, the most sophisticated cannabis research platform available today. Strainprint Analytics is the self-serve web-companion to published reports (like the Candian Medical Cannabis Experience: A 2019 Patient Retrospective) and custom research that Strainprint’s research team conducts on its data for industry.
Various departments at Health Canada will use Strainprint Analytics to:
- Understand how optimal products and administration methods vary by gender and age across the country;
- See how products and producers rank against each other for consistency and efficacy;
- Get better and faster visibility into any adverse reactions; and
- Track how Candian patient use has changed pre and post legalization.
“Canada has developed the most sophisticated and compliant medical cannabis program in the world, which makes Health Canada, arguably, one of the most important data customers in the industry,” said Strainprint CEO, Andrew Muroff. “We are incredibly proud that they have chosen to work with us as a trusted authority on patient data.”
