The movement to legalize cannabis in the United States is gaining momentum. Multiple states have enacted laws that legalize or decriminalize use and possession for medicinal and/or recreational use.

Expert panelists with a variety of perspectives weigh in to discuss the benefits and risks; facts versus myths; how use of cannabis and products like CBD can be medically innovative, how use of marijuana affects cognitive performance; and discussion on laws and public health policy.
