The event, held in a hybrid format (online on the 13th and in-person/virtual on the 14th at the Windsor Barra Hotel), will feature high-level discussions on science, clinical practice, and the therapeutic applications of cannabinoids.
Organized by Wotë, the seminar aims to bring together physicians, dentists, pharmacists, researchers, and healthcare professionals to debate scientific advances, pharmaceutical safety, dosage titration, as well as essential topics such as the entourage effect, terpenes, and flavonoids.
International Highlight: Dr. Ethan Russo
One of the major highlights of Fitomed Summit 2026 is the presence of one of the world's leading authorities on medical cannabis: American neurologist and researcher Dr. Ethan Russo. Known worldwide for his pioneering studies on the endocannabinoid system and the entourage effect concept, Dr. Russo brings significant scientific leadership to Brazil to enrich discussions on evidence-based cannabinoid medicine.
