DENVER, Sept. 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phoenix Life Sciences International Limited (“Phoenix Life”) (OTCMarkets: MJMD), an adaptive global healthcare solutions company, today announced that its Chief Executive Officer Martin Tindall will be speaking on an expert panel about pharmaceutical cannabis research at the Cannabis World Congress and Business Expo, taking place in Los Angeles on Thursday, Sept. 27, at 2 p.m. PT.

“As cannabis research and innovation continues to flourish in the U.S. and throughout the world, I am proud to be at the forefront of this conversation and help people understand the many underutilized tools and resources that are available with plant-based medicines,” said Martin Tindall, incoming Chief Executive Officer of Phoenix Life Sciences International. “We hope that Phoenix will soon become a widely recognized leader in this space and help improve global healthcare.”

The Cannabis World Congress and Business Expo is one of the largest business-to-business trade show events for the cannabis industry, with entrepreneurs, investors, media and other stakeholders from all over the country in attendance. The panel, titled “Pharmaceutical Research” will feature several industry experts and will explore the many facets of current cannabis research and the gaps which still need to be filled. The panelists, including Tindall, will also discuss the challenges of doing research in the U.S. versus in other countries around the world.

Currently, Phoenix Life Sciences International is working to become the leader in outdoor-grown pharmaceutical cannabis-derived drugs targeted at diabetes. The company is working with the Republic of Vanuatu’s governmental agencies to help the nation treat its more than 35,000 diabetes patients with a low-cost alternative natural treatment. Once the company’s diabetes drug has undergone several clinical studies, the company plans to then align with federal and state single-payer healthcare systems in established and emerging economies in order to bring it to market.

The Cannabis World Congress and Business Expo Exhibit Hall will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 27, and Friday, Sept. 28, and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 29.
