genetics of cannabis The: a...

Pharmacology University

In this book, you will learn about cannabis from its fundamental unit, in other words, what identifies it and gives it these important characteristics, making it a unique species, based on its genetic material or the information present in the plant's genes. This network of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid), controls all the processes of defense, nutrition, and communication of cannabis, and at the same time produces wonderful molecules such as phenylpropanoids, cannabinoids, and terpenes, which offer us important medicinal properties. 
New sequencing technologies have allowed a deeper study of the Cannabis genome and thanks to this, more important proteins for the plant are now known, as well as the biological pathways where they act, allowing plant species to be genetically modified, providing great benefits for crops.  
Additionally, genetic engineering is transforming agricultural techniques, being a useful alternative in monitoring the stages of cultivation, also, these advances are revolutionizing the understanding of pharmacogenetics, which is how our body assimilates cannabis-based medicines. 
If you are interested in learning more about the extraordinary world of cannabis genetics, we invite you to enjoy this audiobook that Pharmacology University brings to you.

Wild Brains - Translating...

Kelly Lambert

Despite a century of impressive advances in neuroscience, few true breakthroughs in mental health treatment have emerged. At a time of escalating mental health challenges across the globe, what have we missed by focusing on rats and mice in brain research and neglecting other species with equally complex and adaptive brains? In Wild Brains, Kelly Lambert invites listeners on a captivating journey to rethink traditional animal research models, venturing beyond the confines of the laboratory to explore the extraordinary promise of studying animal brains in the wild.With Lambert as your guide, you'll discover neural clues that help us understand the mischievous raccoon, the shape-shifting octopus, the family-focused owl monkey, the industrious beaver, and elephants that engage in deceptive behavior. Can naked mole rats unlock secrets to aging well? Could the play behaviors of animals offer mood-boosting strategies for humans? Can prairie voles help us decode the neural roots of human connection? Lambert draws on historical insights as well as her own groundbreaking research—from teaching rats to drive tiny cars to testing the problem-solving skills of mouse lemurs in Madagascar—to reveal what wild brains can teach us about emotional resilience, stress regulation, social bonding, and longevity.
