MindSet 2020: Psychedelics- Therapy of the Future?

MindSet2020

An increasing number of clinical research shows that psychedelic drugs could be very effective in therapy of PTSD or depression, which are major pressing psychiatric disorders. Despite these promising results, LSD or psilocybin have a very controversial, even infamous, reputation. Outlawed in the 1970s due to concerns over drug abuse, they remained in the shadows of the medical world until now. Is it time to bring psychedelics to the therapeutic spotlight? This and more will be discussed with our panel of experts during our annual MindSet panel discussion on Oct 8th, 6:30pm at UZH!

 

If you missed our MindSet panel discussion, watch the debate now and get insights on how psychedelics could be the therapy of the future!
