This year, we were proud to share the beauty of Galway with our ICRS2022 Delegates worldwide – from a spectacular location.
ICRS2022 – A HYBRID SYMPOSIUM
LIVE and ONLINE
from the
BAILEY ALLEN HALL
National University of Ireland Galway
June 25-30, 2022
At all times, the safety of delegates was our top priority. Attendees were required to adhere to all prevailing Irish Government, NUI Galway, Public Health guidelines and the ICRS Code of Conduct:
https://www.gov.ie/en/publication/3361b-public-health-updates/
https://www.nuigalway.ie/covid-19/
Masking and social distancing were encouraged at ICRS2022.
While our intention was for the majority of short oral and plenary talks to be delivered by delegates attending in-person, a minor proportion of short oral and plenary talks were selected for presentation by delegates attending online/virtually.
For delegates unable to attend in-person in Galway, all oral presentations and plenary talks were streamed online, live/simultaneously/synchronously with Q&A, and posters were viewable online. For both in-person and virtual delegates, all presentations (oral and poster) will now be viewable as recorded material, for a significant period of time after the live symposium concluded on June 30.

Born in Lisieux, France in 1925, Dr. Monique C. Braude spent her career at the National Institute on Drug Abuse, where she was instrumental in promoting preclinical research in cannabis and cannabinoids. In addition to her passion for cannabinoid research, Dr. Braude believed strongly in helping women enter scientific careers. She was an ICRS member and strong supporter of Graduate Women in Science.
Every year, ICRS selects outstanding female students, selected for academic excellence, abstracts review scores and presentation scores to receive recognition from the Monique C. and George L. Braude Foundation.

We cannot thank our sponsors enough. Their kind support faciliates Trainee Awards and other aspects of our annual symposium. A major feature of our Annual Symposia has been to facilitate the next generation of cannabinoid scholars by supporting their participation. ICRS is a registered U.S. 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization, and so we are able to use the funds provided by our sponsors to ensure that there is a reduced burden for early career researchers to meet and interact with the world leaders in cannabinoid research.
ICRS welcomes collaboration with all legitimate, academic support organizations. ICRS sponsorship supports Trainee Awards, to facilitate participation of our undergraduate, pre- and post-Doctoral Members.
Please contact us if you'd like to become a sponsor for ICRS in 2023.

Advanced booking is strongly advised. Buses depart frequently. Delayed flight? Your ticket will be valid on the next bus, provided there are spare seats available. Some buses travel non-stop to Galway, while others have one stop in Dublin City before travelling onwards to Galway.
Ireland is accessible via ferry from both the United Kingdom and France. 6 ferry crossings are available to Ireland, via one of three Irish Sea ships; The Isle of Inishmore, the Epsilon, and the Ulysses.

Irish Rail offers 9 daily train transfers from Dublin City center (Heuston Station) to Galway City center. However, there is no train station at Dublin Airport, so a 30 – 45 minute bus/taxi journey from the airport to Heuston station is required.
