Walter Brent Wilson (Fed)
Research Chemist
Dr. Wilson is coordinating the CSD Cannabis research program at NIST with a focus on developing Cannabis reference materials and a Quality Assurance Program (CannaQAP). As part of his work, the development of chromatographic methods will be a primary focus to separate many natural and synthetic cannabinoids in complex Cannabis matrixes: dried plant, extracts, concentrates, edibles, etc. Gas chromatography and reversed-phase liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry or tandem mass spectrometry will be the primary analytical techniques. He has published 38 publications in international peer-reviewed journals and has had over 60 presentations at multiple local, national, and international conferences.
