NIDA-funded, you say? NIDA’s director is the granddaughter of Leon Trotsky — I kid you not.... Yep.
Dr. Volkow is head of the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse.
Lev Davidovich Bronshtein (Trotsky) married Aleksandra Livovna Sokolovskaia and had two daughters, the oldest being Zinaida L'vovna Bronshtein.
Zinaida married twice (both husbands were assassinated), her second being Platon Ivanovich Volkov. They had a son, Vsevolod [or, Seva] Platonovich Volkov, who as a Mexican goes by the name
Esteban and runs a museum for Trotsky.
Dr. Nora Volkov is the second (of 4) daughters of Esteban Volkov.
