signed by Professor Val Curran (UCL Psychology & Language Sciences) states: 'As medical and academic scientists, we strongly urge

This would allow medical doctors to prescribe cannabis and/or cannabinoid
products to patients who they think will benefit from this treatment based on
the available scientific evidence.'
