Franz Arturo Carranza
I am the Founder of TheraSolv, LLC. I am currently at Georgia Tech where I am a candidate for a B.S. in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering with a focus on biotechnology.
During my early undergrad I had the privilege of conducting research with a team of amazing scientists at Georgia Tech, The Kubanek Research Lab run by doctor Julia Kubanek, where I helped discover the bioactive compounds known as Iododocalophycolic acid A, B, C, & D. The compounds were later published in the Journal of Organic Chemistry, titled: Iodinated Meroditerpenes from a Reg Alga Callophycus sp. . From that research, I became enamored with the idea of being able to find medicines in nature and bring them to the modern market as alternatives to mainstream pharmaceuticals. I began to do research on how I could do this and quickly encountered what is popularly known as medical cannabis. As my interest was sparked concerning the true medicinal values of the plant, I was almost simultaneously given the opportunity
to work with Professor Pete Ludovice in conducting formal cannabis research while at Georgia Tech. During my initial research with Ludovice, I worked on identifying synthetic versions of CBD and THC as well as developing a theoretical reaction scheme to convert THC to CBD. During this period of time, I independently devoted myself to learning a lot about past and present cultivation methods, plant processing methods, current cannabis legislation, current cannabis companies and where their products come from, and how THC and CBD truly work at the protein level. Now, armed with all of my new knowledge, I want to work with the TheraSolv team to revolutionize how the cannabis plant is cultivated and used in households and industries throughout Georgia and the nation.
