Scientists scan brains on magic mushrooms to unlock neurological disorder secrets

NCT ID NCT05723276

Summary

This study aims to understand how psilocybin, the active compound in psychedelic mushrooms, affects brain networks in people with functional neurological disorder (FND). Researchers will use MRI brain scans before and after a single dose to see if psilocybin changes specific brain connections. The study includes 24 adults with moderate to severe FND symptoms that haven't improved with standard treatments.
