Researchers at the University of Arizona Health Sciences have identified compounds from the Cannabis sativa plant that may offer a new way to treat fibromyalgia and post-surgical pain. The findings, published in Pharmacological Reports, add to growing evidence that certain cannabis-derived molecules could help relieve chronic pain without causing the psychoactive effects associated with THC. The study builds on earlier work from the lab of John Streicher, PhD, a member of the Comprehensive Center for Pain & Addiction, which found that terpenes could reduce pain in models of inflammation and chemotherapy-related nerve damage. “Our research is showing that terpenes are…

Researchers at the University of Technology Sydney have demonstrated a new way to control tiny sources of quantum light by twisting atomically thin layers of hexagonal boron nitride. The advance provides scientists with a new method for tuning quantum emitters, which are microscopic light sources that could play an important role in future technologies such as quantum computing, secure communications, and ultra-sensitive sensors. Lead author Dr. Angus Gale said the work offers researchers a valuable new tool for making these quantum systems more practical. “You can measure these quantum emitters and see that they exist, but it’s hard to make…
