In this <a href="https://www.hubermanlab.com/essentials">Huberman Lab Essentials</a> episode, my guest is <a href="https://www.sheppardpratt.org/why-sheppard-pratt/our-experts/details/matthew-w-johnson-phd/">Dr. Matthew Johnson, PhD</a>, a senior researcher for the Center of Excellence for Psilocybin Research and Treatment at Sheppard Pratt’s Institute for Advanced Diagnostics and Therapeutics.
We explore the science and therapeutic potential of psychedelic medicine, including psilocybin, MDMA and LSD. We discuss how these substances can profoundly alter perception and self-identity, providing long-lasting relief from depression, addiction and trauma when used in controlled clinical settings. We also discuss microdosing and emerging research on psychedelics’ potential to support recovery from neurological injuries.
