On January 9, 2011, MAPS Executive Director Rick Doblin, Ph.D., was interviewed on Carl’s Cannabis Corner, which hosts weekly podcasts and videos related to marijuana and the law. In the hour-long interview, Rick talks about MAPS’ efforts to conduct research on the possible benefits of marijuana for PTSD and break the monopoly on cannabis research currently held by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). They also discuss current federal attempts to reschedule cannabis and synthetic cannabinoids. The interview is available both as a streaming video and as a downloadable mp3.
