Vocan is focused on advancing the knowledge of natural-based medicines for the treatment of mental health illnesses, including addictions, and has identified a patentable method of producing psilocybin, the active ingredient in psychotropic mushrooms. With the acquisition of Vocan, the Company is in the process of preparing to produce pharmaceutical grade psilocybin for use by researchers engaging in clinical trials, as well as for the recreational and micro-dosing markets.

Dr. Hancock’s role as CEO for Vocan Biotechnologies, positions him as the best fit to lead the Company as Executive Chairman, and provide direction to the Company on its path to becoming a leader in the area of psychedelics as alternative medicines.

The Company’s innovative business strategy and strong leadership team will position it to grow into one of the largest and most influential companies addressing the health and social benefits of safe psychedelic compounds.”, stated Dr. Hancock.

We are excited to welcome Dr. Hancock to the Company as Executive Chairman. I look forward to working with him closely as his nearly 40 years of leadership in microbiology research will be vital to guiding our strategic initiatives in the alternative medicine market. His cutting edge research, and focus on producing low cost biosynthesized psilocybin at a large scale is a driving force behind Core One’s position as a leader in the space” stated Joel Shacker CEO of the Company.

Dr. Hancock’s appointment to the Company’s Board of Directors fills the vacancy created by Casey Fenwick, who has resigned as a director of the Company effective immediately to focus on other ventures. The board of directors of the Company thanks Mr. Fenwick for his service to the Company.
