Proceedings from the 26th Annual Symposium of the International Cannabinoid Research Society: June 26–July 1, 2016

The 26(th) Annual Symposium of the International Cannabinoid Research Society (ICRS) was held in the mountain town of Bukowina Tatrzanska (Krakow), Poland, on June 26–July 1, 2016. In this breathtaking location, newcomers and well-established investigators in the field of (endo)cannabinoid research presented exciting new data, with a good balance between preclinical and clinical topics, both in the central nervous system and in peripheral tissues. Potential indications for the therapeutic use of cannabis to treat various human disorders were also discussed in the conference. After more than a quarter of a century, ICRS proved to be once again a unique forum to share novel concepts on (endo)cannabinoid research at large, and most of the approximately 300 delegates voiced their support for having such a forum where diverse (and sometimes contrasting) ideas can be exchanged, fostering new collaborations.
