Episode Synopsis
Markus Roggen, President and Chief Scientific Officer at DELIC Labs, is back to discuss the challenges that come with testing psilocybin and psychedelic mushrooms.
Markus has been in the cannabis industry since 2014 and has held several executive positions in analytical and production companies. His research into process optimization and analytical methods has been recognized with a number of awards, and he has become a trusted advisor and mentor to multiple startups, startup accelerators and organizations, including CannMed.

Our conversation covers the following topics:
The regulations in Canada that make it favorable for psychedelic research
What does psilocybin medicine look like and how is it created
Whether psilocybin will become a mass-market recreational product
How psilocybin analytics differs from cannabinoid analytics
The difference between psilocybin and psilocin
What types of impurities/contaminants are a concern with psilocybin products
The process of discovering new tryptamine compounds in psychedelic mushrooms
Future research projects (psilocybin extraction and optimal storage conditions)
