While most dispensaries focus on sales, one cannabis chain is partnering with Thomas Jefferson University to change how we approach patient care.
There’s an unsettling problem sweeping the cannabis industry. While dispensaries continue popping up nationwide, thanks to widespread legalization, we’ve noticed a trend.
Patient education in the medical cannabis sector is still pretty limited. Instead of finding trusted and reliable medical guidance, many consumers have to navigate the ropes of wellness on their own. Personally, I’m waiting for an industry where sound guidance is more common than trial and error.
Ethos Cannabis is changing that. Impressively, this dispensary chain launched a partnership with Thomas Jefferson University to bridge the gap between cannabis retail and medical research. Read on to see how Ethos sets a new standard for informed cannabis access.

Medical cannabis patients are entitled to know this next fact. Under the leadership of Dr. Brooke Worster, Associate Professor of Medicine at Thomas Jefferson University, Ethos has conducted several studies to deepen our understanding of:
The cannabis plant
The many laws around it
The science behind its medicinal use
One of the most surprising facts we found? Ethos and TJU’s recent research revealed that only 51% of physicians have completed any formal training on medical cannabis, despite caring for patients who use it.
The knowledge gap was glaring, so Ethos decided to take matters into its own hands through comprehensive educational programs. And yes, that extends to both healthcare providers and patients.
Even if you want to be included in their research programs, Ethos offers that too. Simply head to their research page and schedule an introductory meeting or call with Thomas Jefferson Health University’s research coordinator at MMJstudy@Jefferson.edu.
