The Psychedelic Renaissance: Why now? And What Next?

3 March 2023, 1.00 PM - 3 March 2023, 2.00 PM

Ben Sessa (co-Founder and Head of Psychedelic Medicine, AWAKN Life Science Inc.)

C44 Biomedical Sciences and online

Hosted by the Wellcome Neural Dynamics PhD Programme

The Psychedelic Renaissance is well underway. Psychedelics are positioning themselves as great disrupters of categorical psychiatric diagnoses - and providing exciting new opportunities for tackling rigid, difficult to treat psychiatric conditions. The talk will explore how psychedelics work neurobiologically, and how different compounds (MDMA, psilocybin and ketamine) share similarities in a clinical setting.
