University of Ottawa

The University of Ottawa launched  The Psychedelics & Spirituality Studies Initiative (PSSI) in 2021. PSSI is an interdisciplinary group of faculty and graduate students who share a common interest in the study of psychedelics, spirituality and integrative healing.

PSSI gives students the chance to undertake three semesters a year online The program delves into the spiritual, ritualistic, and therapeutic uses of psychedelics and other non-ordinary states of consciousness, across cultures and throughout history. The program is offered under the Faculty of Arts, and it sits at the intersection of several disciplines, including religion, psychology, anthropology, and health.

Dr Pierre Blier at the University of Ottawa is currently exploring the effects ketamine has on depression.
