The Santa Cruz Institute for Psychedelic Research

The Santa Cruz Institute for Psychedelic Research is a research organization dedicated to studying the potential therapeutic and scientific benefits of psychedelic substances. It explores how these substances can help treat mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and PTSD, often under controlled settings. The institute aims to advance understanding of psychedelics’ effects on the brain and consciousness, promote safe use, and inform responsible policy. Its work combines scientific experimentation, clinical trials, and education to contribute to evidence-based practices and reduce stigma around psychedelics.
