Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic Research

The Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research is a leading research institution that explores the potential therapeutic uses of psychedelics, such as psilocybin (found in magic mushrooms) and LSD. Scientists at the center investigate how these substances can help treat mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and PTSD. The research aims to understand the effects of psychedelics on the brain, consciousness, and emotional well-being, using rigorous scientific methods. By conducting clinical trials and studies, the center seeks to establish a foundation for using psychedelics in mental health treatments and promote informed public understanding.
