About
Psychedelics are experiencing a resurgence in all industries. This is best exemplified by the upcoming conference, Psychedelic Science 2023.
The conference will be hosted by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). MAPS, a non-profit research and educational organization, has been at the forefront of psychedelic research since 1986. The organization has been instrumental in advancing our understanding of the potential therapeutic benefits of psychedelics. Likewise their role in treating a range of mental health conditions, such as depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
“The psychedelic renaissance is gaining traction across the globe that will catalyze healing and personal growth for millions,” said MAPS Founder and Executive Director Rick Doblin, Ph.D. “Thanks to the professional and dedicated team at Momentum, we can be assured Psychedelic Science 2023 will be a bridge connecting the medical, the mystical, the marginalized, and the mainstream as we move together toward mass mental health.”
So whether you are a seasoned researcher, clinician, or simply interested in the potential therapeutic benefits of psychedelics. Psychedelic Science 2023 is a unique opportunity for attendees to delve into the frontiers of psychedelic research.
