M-PsyC Education & Events

Psychedelic studies are a fertile ground for multidisciplinary education.

From molecular pharmacology, to systems neuroscience, to policy and social justice, M-PsyC is committed to creating broad engagement around education regarding psychedelic drugs and the psychedelic experience.

M-PsyC launched the first ever class at the University of Michigan on Psychedelic Neuroscience and has held symposia on psychedelic studies. We look forward to engaging learners from all fields and career stages as we explore this important and multidimensional subject.
