In this episode of Humanitarian Horizons, Christina DiArcangelo welcomes Erik Asher, a dear friend and fellow advocate in the cannabinoid space. They delve into the changes they've witnessed in Pennsylvania's medical cannabis program and how it has impacted patients. Despite promises of a patient-centric approach, the program's evolution has been met with mixed results. Initially, the program boasted high-quality products from numerous small companies focused on patient well-being. However, the entry of out-of-state companies led to consolidation, dwindling product variety, and increased prices.

They reflect on the program's early days when it held promise for clinical research collaborations with prestigious universities.
