Chronic pain does not need another ‘winning’ drug class. It needs treatments that deliver meaningful benefit to the right patient. I look forward to discussing whether cannabinoid medicines can help us get closer to that goal.
Michael UeberallMedical Director, Center of Excellence in Health Care Research / Institute of Neurological Sciences
My priority is to increase knowledge and understanding about medical cannabis amongst police officers and police staff. And to create consensus, cooperation and collaboration with patients, health care partners, the medical cannabis industry and wider community.
Richard ListNational Secretary and CDLO, Association of Police Controlled Drug Liaison Officers
This event brings together dedicated medical cannabis professionals on subjects that really matter: pharmaceutical quality, standardization and appropriate regulation of cannabis as medicine.
Tjalling ErkelensChairman of the Board, Bedrocan International
What roles do social, cultural and behavioural factors play in shaping medical cannabis outcomes? I look forward to discussing how social science concepts can be applied to improve patient care.
Dr Anna WaldsteinSenior Lecturer in Medical Anthropology, University of Kent
Medical cannabis is a small field where many people know each other's names but have never met. Frankfurt is a good place to change that, and I'm happy to host the conversation.
Bertan TüremisCEO, bemedica
Real-world evidence complements clinical research and provides valuable insights into the use of cannabinoid-based medicines in everyday clinical practice.
Dr Julian HaistMedical Affairs Representative, Tilray Medical
