Proud moment: Being selected by my colleagues for the 2015 Mechoulam award, bestowed by the International Cannabinoid Research Society to a scientist who is deemed to have made outstanding contributions to the field and moved the discipline forward.
Luckiest break: I have been very fortunate to work with many talented colleagues and students over the years. That really is my luckiest break.
Scientific hero: Billy R. Martin, who encouraged me to study cannabinoid receptors.
