**About the Editor**

**Edgar Soria-G ´omez** has been involved in neuroscience and endocannabinoid research since 2001, when he joined Dr. Oscar Prospero-Garc ´ ´ıa's laboratory, the leading Mexican lab devoted to the study of the endocannabinoid system. There, he completed his bachelor and doctoral studies (2002–2009). He obtained his Ph.D. in Biomedical Science in 2009 from the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de M ´ exico (UNAM, Mexico). During that period, in 2007, he had the opportunity to ´ spend several months abroad in Liverpool, UK, in Professor Tim C. Kirkham's laboratory, the first to demonstrate the appetite-stimulating properties of endocannabinoids. Then, in 2009, after being awarded the Fyssen Foundation Fellowship, he started his postdoctoral research as part of Giovanni Marsicano's team, at the NeuroCentre Magendie (Bordeaux, France), one of the most prestigious international environments for the study of endocannabinoid functions. In 2018, he obtained the Ikerbasque Research Fellowship at the Achucarro Basque Center for Neuroscience at the University of the Basque Country in Bizkaia, Spain. There, he is developing his line of research, which mainly focuses on the study of the endocannabinoid system and the identification of the brain circuits which control physiological and pathological states.
