The Physicians CBD Council becomes the Medical Editorial Board of the new Journal of Cannabinoid Medicine that will be published and launched in 2022 by the Mace Media Group.
IRVINE, CALIF. (PR WEB) JANUARY 24, 2022
The Physicians CBD Council LLC today entered into an agreement with Mace Media Group to be the Medical Editorial Board and Peer Reviews of a new medical journal that will be published twice a year beginning in May 2022. The new Journal of Cannabinoid Medicine will cover exclusively research, studies and articles related to cannabis and its cannabinoid components.
Founded by Dr. Dung Trinh, Chief Medical Officer (CMO) of Irvine Clinical Research and Astiva Health, The Physicians Cannabinoid (CBD) Council was launched in 2020 and is composed of physicians, PhDs, pharmacists, and nurse practitioners who excel in their primary field of specialty while choosing to spend time educating their patients and supporting the emerging field of cannabis research for potential therapeutic health benefits.
“The mission of the Physicians CBD Council is to Promote, Educate and Collaborate for the advancement of cannabis medical research and to bring safety to consumers, so becoming the partner of Mace Media Group to manage the new Journal of Cannabinoid Medicine was right in line with our mission.” Says Helene Blanchette, President of the Physicians CBD Council.
Mace Media Group is no stranger to the cannabis industry. Celeste Miranda, the founder and CEO, and her team are the producers of the well-established CBD Expo Tour deployed across the United States. They also already publish the respected CBD Health and Wellness magazine, both online and paper format.
“I am honored to have the Physicians CBD Council join us in our efforts to launch the Journal of Cannabinoid Medicine. As a Journal, this affiliation will set us apart from any other, providing incredible validation from physicians, researchers, and scientists. It’s a joint effort of forte’s to bring what will be an integral part of this industry to fruition. I’m excited to play our part, work with the Physicians CBD Council and produce a publication that will change and progress the course of wellness.” says Celeste Miranda, Founder and CEO of the Mace Media Group.
The more research and trials are being made on cannabis and the more evidence is unveiled on the benefits of CBD and other cannabinoid compounds (more than 100 compounds), on diseases and body disbalances. We now know that the endocannabinoid system, discovered in Israel in the 1990’s, is as important as the rest of our biological systems, such as the endocrinological system or the cardiovascular system, hence it is essential to join forces to bring to light the different studies and research being conducted. We strongly believe in the medicinal benefits of cannabis derived products, but also care to educate on the potential misuse or side effects.
Each Journal will contain seven to nine articles that will have been evaluated, assessed and reviewed by the Editorial Board members. The Editorial Office, whose mandate is to do a triage of the articles, will evaluate the worthiness of the submissions prior to assigning the selected articles to the editors and reviewers. In all, twelve MDs and PHDs will be part of the process, supported by knowledge experts and medical students.
“The quality and diversity of the colleague physicians and PHDs who are confirmed on the board is nothing short of remarkable, we could not hope for a better team, who brings a wealth of knowledge on cannabis.” says Dr. Dung Trinh, founder of the Physicians CBD Council. The Editorial Board Members’ expertise span from general medical practitioners, autism specialists, psychiatrists to chemistry experts and doctors in pharmacology, all coming together with the same goal of advancing the medical research and education on Cannabis.
