Scientists scan brains on 'Magic Mushroom' compound to unlock secrets of thought
NCT ID NCT05301608
Summary
This study aims to understand how a single dose of psilocybin, the compound in psychedelic mushrooms, changes how people think and how their brains work. Researchers at Johns Hopkins will give 30 healthy volunteers a moderate dose or a placebo and measure their brain activity, creativity, and memory using computer tasks, EEG brainwave caps, and MRI scans. The goal is to gather basic knowledge about consciousness and how psychedelic compounds affect the mind, which could inform future medical uses.
