March was a great month for research into psychedelics. The month featured a large-scale microdosing study where participants self-blinded their psychedelics. Other studies helped us form a framework around psychedelic retreats and how community factors help someone have better outcomes. Whilst other studies have, once again, shown the power of placebo and possible ways of dissecting that from other factors such as the active drug.

February 2021 was another great month for psychedelic research and advocacy. Many brain (fMRI) studies were done and these help us better understand the mechanisms of action and why people respond in different ways to psychedelics. One study (in mice) even provided (more) evidence for neuronal growth.

This is the Psychedelics News in January 2021. Studies with psychedelics are continuing into this new year. A trend seen this month is the further cooperation between the ‘big’ corporates and research centers and universities.
