Including:
Including:
- How state mandates and support can drive progress
- The role of state-sponsored research in drug policy reform
- The need to differentiate clinical vs recreational use
Popular agreement suggests that the legal future of psychedelics will take place in the clinical as opposed to the recreational realm. Therefore, clinical trials and research will be very key to expanding access and understanding how these treatments actually affect our brains.

The psychedelic renaissance is receiving an incredible amount of interest from biotech investors who see psychedelic molecules as the next wave in treating neuropsychiatric disorders. But investors who are assessing this opportunity solely through the lens of biotech may not be seeing the full picture. Psychedelic medicine will challenge many long held conventions of medicine from their off-label uses, to the mainstream cultural impact to their deep integration with experience. All of these change the conversation for the future of psychedelics and biotech, and ought to be considered for any investor looking to allocate capital to the space.

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a prevalent mental health condition with substantial impact on daily functioning that lacks sufficient treatment options. Previous research has led to the U.S. FDA’s designation of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) as a Breakthrough Therapy for treatment of PTSD when administered as an adjunct to therapy. Findings of the first randomized, double-blind, Phase 3 trial assessing the efficacy and safety of 3 sessions with a divided single-dose of MDMA or placebo to participants with severe PTSD (n = 90) will be presented. Results from primary and key secondary endpoints, effect size, and a responder analysis will be presented. Risk/benefit considerations and cost effectiveness analyses will be explored.
