Psychedelic Research Recap July & August 2023

Even as many of us took time off for summer vacations, researchers in the field of psychedelics persisted in their efforts. They delved deeper into understanding the healing properties of these substances. The big psilocybin for depression (MDD) by the non-profit Usona was published, we got new insights into candy flipping (MDMA + psychedelic) from two groups, and the risks of prolonged microdosing.

Psychedelic Research Recap June 2023

June was jam-packed with psychedelic research, with (again) adding nearly one paper a day to the database (29 total & 100+ to the May link overview). We got new insights into the mechanisms through which psychedelics work their magic (from new receptors to the long-awaited ‘critical learning’ paper). Many other clinical results covered everything from DMT for depression to psilocybin’s effect on memory.
