Introduction
The Breaking Convention is held every second year on the beautiful grounds of the University of Greenwich in London.
It is attended by people of all types - artists, filmmakers, business people, political activists and, most importantly for my purposes, scientists.
I've come with the hope of opening doors that will allow me to do the kind of post-graduate research I'm most interested in.
I hope that my time at the Breaking Convention will be fruitful.

- The use of cannabis and cannabis-derived products in the treatment of cancer, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and other severe conditions where other treatments are not always helpful
- The use of MDMA as the drug-component of drug-assisted psychotherapy, particularly relating to PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder)
- The use of psilocybin and other classic psychedelics in the treatment of depression, addiction and end-of-life anxiety
I hope that my time at the Breaking Convention will be fruitful.
