List of HU cannabinoids

From WikiMD's medical encyclopedia

HU cannabinoids are a series of synthetic cannabinoids that were first synthesized in the 1960s in the Weizmann Institute of Science by Professor Raphael Mechoulam and his team. The term "HU" stands for Hebrew University, where Professor Mechoulam was working when the compounds were developed.
