Roadman Investments Corp. (TSXV: LITT) (FWB: 1QD) (OTC: RMANF)
(“
Roadman Investments” or the
“
Company”) is pleased to announce that Anton
Gomez-Escolar has joined the company’s strategic advisory board.
Mr. Gomez-Escolar has a Masters in
Psychopharmacology from Spain’s largest university Complutense
University of Madrid, including a Master Thesis on the topic of
"Psychedelics in psychotherapy for the treatment of depression and
addiction", a Masters in International Relations by Griffith

certificate of Design and Interpretation of Clinical Trials from
John Hopkins School of Public Health, a certificate in Drug
Discovery, Development & Commercialization from UCSD and a

Geneva.
Mr. Gomez-Escolar has worked in harm reduction

organizations including Energy Control (from ABD Welfare and
Development Association, Spain), Kosmicare (Portugal), Check!n
(Portugal), Safe’n Sound (Belgium) and Zendo project (from the
Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies MAPS, USA).
This experience in neuropharmacology and safety has helped him to
provide harm reduction education and manage psychedelic emergencies
on the field, increasing his practical knowledge of psychedelic
compounds and their effects, risks and potential.
In addition to co-founding the Psychedelic
Society of Madrid and Lisbon, he has taken part in several
conferences on the topic of clinical psychedelic research and other
psychopharmacological topics, including Psychedelic Science (San

Addictions Conference (Lisbon), Altered States of Consciousness
(Madrid), Club Health (Amsterdam) and NIGHTS (Berlin).

comprehensive e-learning tool to provide training in different
drug-related topics for the European Union National Focal Points
and other stakeholders, and participated in the 2018 Drug Summer
School organised by ISCTE University and the EMCDDA.
His technical understanding of neurobiology,
psychopharmacology, drug safety and clinical trial development will
allow Roadman Investments to better evaluate potential investments
in biotech firms as well as help the company provide advisory
services to future investee’s or partners that need this
expertise.
Anton will join Roadman’s Health and Wellness
committee and act in an advisory capacity. Mr. Gomez-Escolar’s
anticipated responsibilities include identifying new investing
opportunities within the alternative health space, advising Roadman
during technical due diligence, conducting media interviews and
attending industry conferences.
Luke Montaine, Chief Executive Officer and a
Director of Roadman Investments, said, "Adding Psychopharmacology
specialist like Anton Gomez-Escolar will allow us to make more
informed investment decisions as well as it will provide the
company with the technical expertise needed for us to provide
tremendous value to the companies that we invest in.”
