Since the death of his sister in 2012 in a car crash caused by a driver who was under the influence of marijuana, Dr Drum has dedicated himself to public education on the risks of cannabis use, addressing schools, law enforcement and professional forums across the United States. A member of the International Academy on the Science and Impact of Cannabis (IASIC), he has contributed to its scientific library and served on the California Impaired Driving Task Force from 2018 to 2021.
