LOS ANGELES, Jan. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Applied BioSciences Corp.

Although the health benefits of Cannabis and CBD are becoming well known, one of the challenges is the research and development of products for both the consumer, adult-use and pharmaceutical market. Many universities and doctors have been unable to research and access scientific data on the molecules and effect of phytocannabinoids.
The company continues to add professionals who are expert in relevant fields, such as scientific research and development, FDA procedures and medicine. These professionals will provide the company with an outstanding base of knowledge and experience to build on and advance the development of additional products. With the addition of several prominent scientists and physicians and their knowledge base, clinical trials, product development, and design procedures for submitting products to the FDA can be done in an expedited time frame.
Dr Xiang-Qun (Sean) Xie is an Associate Dean for Research Innovation at the School of Pharmacy and a Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences/Drug Discovery Institute, and a PI of an integrated Medicinal Chemistry Biology laboratory of CompuGroup, BioGroup and ChemGroup at the University of Pittsburgh. He is a member of the Science Advisory Board to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). He is a Founding Director of Computational Chemical Genomics Screening Center, and a Director/PI of NIH National Center of Excellence for CDAR. He holds joint positions at Dept of Computational Biology and Dept of Structural Biology, and Pitt Cancer Institute MT/DD Program. He is an Editorial Advisory Board member for the AAPS Journal and American Journal.
