Really excited for this paper to come out in J Psychopharm - on the mechanistic plausibility that psychedelics can help treat (non-epileptic) functional seizures

Final proofs for this beast of a paper finally out!
With @loopyluppi @RCarhartHarris and additional all stars
We highlight the 5-HT2A receptors' (potentially related) role in the dev expansion and adult modulation of human transmodal cortex

My PhD journey has finally come to an end!
Extremely grateful to my supervisor @Nathan_Spreng, my committee, & all that have supported me
Now onwards and upwards to my postdoc, where I'll be working with @RCarhartHarris at @UCSF on some psychedelic neuroscience! Lots to come!

This new church created its own sacrament: shrooms + 5-MeO-DMT. It was anointed psilomethoxin, an obscure tryptamine
But then scientists said it does not contain psilomethoxin. Chaos ensued on Twitter while the congregation partied in Texas
Me for @VICE

🧠 Psychedelics have a profound impact on the ENTIRE brain. In our latest podcast episode, @MGirnNeuro, a Ph.D. candidate in Neuroscience at @mcgillu, emphasizes that #psychedelics affect the entire brain, not just the #defaultmodenetwork. 🎙Tune in here: buff.ly/3oPKxbi

New paper out, investigating the neural correlates of trait 'absorption'!
We examined associations bt trait absorption and structural and functional (static and dynamic FC) neuroimaging metrics across 2 datasets
No reliable assocs were found

Excited to have been on my good friend @raad_seraj's Minority Trip podcast.
This was a fun wide-ranging convo where we bounce between stuff related to my personal and academic journey, as well as pertinent topics in psychedelic research. Go check out!

Had a wonderful time at the @MicrodoseHQ #WonderlandMiami conference the past few days.
Really great to see the quality of discussion maturing in this space.
A major personal highlight was a dinner with some hard-to-beat badass company!

I get a lot of questions about if ketamine is 'actually a psychedelic'.
To answer this question, @MGirnNeuro will answer our questions with scientific accuracy. We'll discuss some of the implications of these differences as well.
