A growing body of neuroimaging research is pinpointing exactly how psychedelic drugs hijack the brain’s visual system to produce vivid hallucinations, even when a person’s eyes are closed. Studies ...

The researchers detected a specific delay of about 18 milliseconds between the waves in the visual cortex and the ...

A growing body of neuroscience research is converging on a counterintuitive idea: the disorderly brain activity triggered by LSD might actually work against the hyper-synchronized neural firing that ...

UNDATED (WKRC) - Researchers have developed a groundbreaking version of LSD that retains the drug's brain-healing benefits without the mind-altering effects. The team at the University of California, ...

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is not only characterized by strongly encoded traumatic memories, but also by disrupted coordination across brain networks. New research shows that treatment with ...

Forget the old egg-in-a-frying pan bit - scientists finally know what your brain really looks like on drugs. A team of British-based researchers have conducted the first brain scans of people under ...

Researchers at a university in Sweden are using acid and ketamine to better understand the workings of the brain, which would then lead to the development of artificial intelligence. The researchers, ...

Low doses of the psychedelic drug LSD increase complexity in the brain, even when they don’t alter a person’s consciousness. The finding challenges the idea that these two phenomena are correlated and ...

Study shows brainwave synchronization between humans and dogs using LSD. Experiment conducted with 10 beagles carrying a genetic mutation linked to autism. Results suggest LSD could alleviate social ...

Depression is a highly prevalent mental health condition. Because many patients fail to respond to standard therapies, there is a pressing need for alternative approaches. Recently, administration of ...
