Shouldn’t be surprising coming from someone who has argued in publications that psychedelics should be studied with resting-state because of Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle πŸ˜‚

Reverse inference can do amazing things, including redefining psychopharmacology in the absence of any behavioral or physiological measures!

In logic we call this a β€œshit pipe” because you can put anything in and get anything out of an incoherent inference.

Why Everyone's Talking About MDMA & Recovered Memories Can MDMA help retrieve lost memories? This year’s hottest memoir, Amy Griffin's 'The Tell,' has reopened a thorny debate.

Really hyped about being quoted in this Bustle article alongside a mentor of mine for over a decade, the inimitable @charan-neuro.bsky.social. We discuss the potential for MDMA to distort memories rather than uncover forgotten memories.

Switzerland & the ALPS conference was absolutely incredible. Breathtaking landscapes, delicious (and healthy) food, highly intelligent people (and lots of fun), and more psychedelic research than I realized. High recommend for a vacation and the academics.

OMG. The survey we posted (won't retweet here) has a >50% response rate from bots. What's worse is that they just sent a flood of emails right now asking for their compensation. Has anyone else dealt with this?

Apologies to anyone who actually responded. Will sort this out soon.

Have you had an insight related to your work/hobby after taking a psychedelic (not a personal insight)? We're running a survey backed by the Center for Minds to understand such insights. It takes ~30 mins & pays $15.

How Psychedelics Affect the Brain: What We Know, and What We Think We Know Twenty years into the Psychedelic Renaissance, neuroscientists still struggle to understand how psychedelics work and how to rectify misconceptions about these drugs.

New easy-to-read article in The Scientist on how psychedelics work, inconsistencies in leading narratives (no punches were pulled…), and work coming out of our center on the impact of psychedelics on memory. With Greg Fonzo and Charlie Nemeroff.
