"(How) do psychedelics work?"
You are invited you to a lecture organised by Cognito and Stichting Open: "(How) do psychedelics work?"
Neuroscientists dr. Ruud Kortekaas (University Medical Centre Groningen) and dr. Hylke Vervaeke (Free University Amsterdam) give an overview of cutting edge research into psychedelics, focussing on clinical health care, the use of psychedelics in new treatment strategies, and neural mechanisms.
Are psychedelics of any use? And what are the risks? What are the possibilities? What do we know about the effects of psychedelics on the brain? To what degree can techniques such as fMRI, TMS and PET contribute to psychedelic research? And what can we learn from this about consciousness?
Date: Wednesday, May 2nd, time: 19.30 - 22.00, location: University of Amsterdam, Roetersstraat 16 (REC). Room AB.12 ('zaal B').
Free entrance, no registration required.
We hope to see you there!
