In accordance with the Framework Agreement, ICC Labs will provide the Pasteur Institute with various cannabinoid extracts and the Pasteur Institute will conduct scientific and medicinal research programs (the “Research Programs”).

Over a period of two years, ICC Labs will provide US$400,000 in funding and three phytocannabinoid extracts to the Research Program and the Pasteur Institute will conduct various scientific and medicinal research activities designed to ascertain potential effects of the phytocannabinoids on immune response, neuroprotection and intestinal microbiota.

With this first step we are seeking to innovate in the use of new medicines applied to different clinical pathologies, and to generate and making available to the global health community the necessary tools for proper medical prescriptions related to cannabinoids.
