The founder of TLS, Dr. Panenka, is a dually boarded Neurologist and Psychiatrist and Canadian Institute of Health Research funded academic faculty member at the University of British Columbia. He did a post doctoral fellowship at UBC and Harvard University. He maintains an internationally recognized research program in brain injury, mental health and addictions. Dr. Caroline MacCallum is the Chief Medical Officer of TLS. She is a pharmacist and internal medicine physician with deep expertise in complex pain and medical cannabis. She is a medical director of a Vancouver based private cannabis clinic and an internationally sought after speaker and world recognized leader in cannabis education, policy, clinical guideline development and research.

He is Fellowship trained at Columbia University and the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. Has published over 300 peer-reviewed manuscripts including primary clinical trial authorship works in journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine.
The terms of the binding letter of intent are as follows:
Yield Growth subsidiary Flourish shall issue 15,000,000 units of Flourish, consisting of 15,000,000 shares and 15,000,000 units to acquire additional Flourish shares at $0.50 per share, and in exchange Flourish shall acquire approximately 18% of the TLS stock, at a deemed cost of $750,000.
The transaction assumes a post-closing valuation of Flourish of approximately $7,000,000.
No shares or warrants in Yield Growth shall be issued as part of the transaction, although Yield Growth's ownership in Flourish shall be diluted down to approximately 82% at closing and down to 70% on a fully diluted basis.
"I'm overjoyed that Flourish can provide a leading investment into a company with such enormous potential," says Yield Growth and Flourish CEO Penny White. "We will fully support TLS in its goal to develop over the counter products to prevent and treat opiate addiction, which is having devastating effects on individuals, families and communities across the globe."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that the total "economic burden" of prescription opioid misuse alone in the United States is $78.5 billion a year, including the costs of healthcare, lost productivity, addiction treatment, and criminal justice involvement.
