Our case report was rejected. Looking at feedback, I know what I need now. Which is fine. I'm fine.
Any suggestions on where to submit? We need reviewers who know neuroplastigens and fascia as a vehicle for emotional memory in patterning and molecular terms?

When you see "significant cognitive improvement" in a small, uncontrolled psilocybin study - ask:
Did it exceed practice effects?
Did it persist after controlling for mental health changes/mood improvement?
Here, the answers were mostly no.
#psychedelicscience
New psilocybin cognition study shows "significant improvements" in processing speed & executive function after treatment.
But dig into the data and the picture gets complicated.
A thread on why statistical significance does not equal clinical meaningfulness 🧵

Seems like the The "Memory Wars" are coming back - now with psychedelics. A few studies coming out, this one showing 42% of people with post-psychedelic difficulties linked them to childhood trauma.
Centrally, some said they recovered memories they had NO prior recollection of.

I guess there's some small chance there are moderators that could show that certain people are helped and others get hurt, but all-in-all, the data is looking pretty grim for microdosing being more than placebo at this point. #psychedelicscience
