Om föreläsningen:
"With the advent of the Psychedelic Renaissance, psychedelic research is making significant strides in revolutionizing our understaing of the mind. However, most studies in the field are directed to assess potential therapeutic uses of these substances in clinical psychology and psychiatry. These investigations have primarily focused on understanding their psychotherapeutic use, overlooking their impact on physiological processes at systemic and cellular levels. Only recently has biomedical research delved into the somatic effects of psychedelics. The lecture aims to address this knowledge gap by discussing the biology underlying psychedelics' therapeutic effects in illnesses including autoimmunity, stroke, traumatic brain injury, neurodegenerative disorders and dementias. We will focus on both classic (e.g. DMT, psilocybin) and non-classic psychedelics (e.g. muscimol, ibogaine, etc.)."
