PREVIOUS EVENTS

Susan Short is a specialist researcher on the treatment of brain tumours in adults. She is currently leading a study into the use of a cannabinoid-based drug as a treatment for the most aggressive brain tumours. She will speak about this trial, and the means by which the cannabinoids may help in slowing the re-growth of persistent tumours. She will also refer to the use of cannabinoids in treatments for MS (multiple sclerosis).

Susan Short is a clinical oncologist and is Professor of Clinical Oncology and Neuro-Oncology at the School of Medicine, University of Leeds.

(The campaign for the legalization of cannabinoids as a treatment for MS was led by Elizabeth Brice, under the pseudonym Clare Hodges. She lived in Regent Street, Chapel Allerton. A blue plaque will be unveiled on Regent Street on Wednesday 17 April to mark the lives and achievements of Liz Brice and her husband Duncan Dallas, founder of Cafe Scientifique.)

This meeting will be in-person at Seven Arts, 31A Harrogate Road, Leeds LS7 3PD. It will not be broadcast over Zoom.
