AMS was pleased to welcome back Dr. Barry Sample of Quest Diagnostics to our esteemed group of presenters during last week’s Annual Membership Meeting & Safety Awards Ceremony.  Dr. Sample’s presentation, along with each of the other featured presentations, addressed specific concerns raised by our member companies. 

Dr. Sample delivered an informative overview of synthetic cannabinoids, the difficulties involved in testing and detection, as well as recommendations for what employers can do to confront these elusive drugs.  Now Dr. Sample has been kind enough to offer to share his presentation, “Synthetic Drugs:  Cannabinoids,” a link to which can be found below, with all of the AMS member companies. 

AMS would like to express our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Sample, the rest of our distinguished presenters, and each one of our attendees.  Once again this year the AMS Membership Meeting & Safety Awards Ceremony was an engaging event, highlighted by time spent in the company of so many of our maritime colleagues.
