“Founder of the Multidisiplenary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), Rick Doblin, Ph.D. relates his long sought requests of the Drug Enforcement Administration and the National Institutes of Drug Abuse, which controls the U.S. government-grown medical marijuana and who gets it for research, for access to cannabis for research and to import high CBD strains from Holland.
