The Neuroscience of Psychedelics with Ramzy Abueita

  • Trident Booksellers & Cafe 940 pearl street Boulder, CO 80302 USA (map)

Come catch up to speed on the groundbreaking research on the neurological mechanisms of psychedelics! There is a renaissance currently undergoing in the field of neuroscience regarding psychedelics and their effects on the brain and we know more about the mechanisms than ever before. We will learn about substances including LSD, psilocybin, DMT, MDMA, ketamine and others. We will also address these questions:

• How do psychedelics exert their effects on the brain?

• How do psychedelics influence brain networks?

• What is the neural basis for mystical experiences?

• How are psychedelics implicated in the treatment and healing of depression, PTSD and anxiety?

• How do psychedelics promote neuroplasticity?

• How do different substances affect the brain differently?

There is a $12 suggested donation to attend this event.

Ramzy Abueita has a degree in neuroscience from the University of Michigan and has presented on the neuroscience and neurobiology of psychedelics to the Center for Consciousness Science at the University of Michigan Medical School and the Michigan Psychedelic Society.
