This event is an unique opportunity for international industry stakeholders, medical healthcare professionals, Functional and Integrative Medicine practitioners, and Community Healthcare Changemakers & Leaders to come together for a historical USA/France live event. Science in the City is focussed on Evidence-Based Emerging Topics that are shaping the future of plant-based healthcare. Melissa will be speaking on the need for regulatory approved CBD therapeutics to provide easily accessible and cost-effective treatments for women suffering from endometriosis.

The team will be available for meetings with investors, potential partners, and media. Please contact Megan Morris on Megan.morris@anandapharma.co.uk to schedule a meeting in Bordeaux or New York.
Melissa Sturgess, CEO, commented: "We are delighted to be attending this important event and I am personally delighted to be invited to give a Keynote speech on the need for regulatory approved CBD therapies in the treatment of endometriosis pain.
