Scientists map the magic mushroom brain
NCT ID NCT04501653
Summary
This study used detailed brain scans to understand how psilocybin, the active compound in 'magic mushrooms,' affects communication networks in the brain. Eleven healthy adults received either psilocybin or a comparison drug during multiple scanning sessions. The goal was to create a precise map of brain changes to help explain how psilocybin might work as a future mental health treatment.
