Currently going to school for my cannabis certification but I rarely see any jobs that offer cannabis research.

Yet again no luck whatsoever, just finding jobs as budtenders or running a dispensary. Does anyone know where I can find research-based cannabis jobs? I have a degree in horticulture with lab experience.
