The study of psychedelics as therapeutic tools raises profound ethical questions about medicine, society, and patient care. This virtual panel brings together experts to explore critical questions: How do historical stigma and cultural context shape the development of psychedelic therapies? What role should public perception play in evaluating medical applications? How can researchers best protect potentially vulnerable participants while advancing scientific understanding? Join us for this nuanced discussion on developing ethical frameworks for responsible psychedelic research.
