Description: Psychedelics are powerful psychoactive substances that alter perception and mood and affect numerous cognitive processes. Their origins predate written history, and early cultures used them in many sociocultural and ritual contexts. The name ‘psychedelics’ was coined by Humphrey Osmond in 1957, suggesting that they have a mind-manifesting capability that may reveal useful or beneficial properties of the mind. For decades, psychedelics have been classified as illegal drugs. Recent research suggests that these substances may provide a potential breakthrough in the treatment of a myriad of mental health conditions. This exploratory workshop will examine the ethical and practical considerations for psychedelics research with the goal of promoting an open and grounded discourse on how to conduct research that is inclusive and protective of participants.

Abstract: (CIT): Psychedelics are powerful psychoactive substances that alter perception and mood and affect numerous cognitive processes. Their origins predate written history, and early cultures used them in many sociocultural and ritual contexts. The name "psychedelics" was coined by Humphrey Osmond in 1957, suggesting that they have a mind-manifesting capability that may reveal useful or beneficial properties of the mind. For decades, psychedelics have been classified as illegal drugs. Recent research suggests that these substances may provide a potential breakthrough in the treatment of a myriad of mental health conditions. This exploratory workshop will examine the ethical and practical considerations for psychedelics research with the goal of promoting an open and grounded discourse on how to conduct research that is inclusive and protective of participants.
