Prior to #EBPS2024 I am here at UCalgary for a research day. First up Ziva Cooper gave a fascinating talk on the many projects she is working on. We learned about the impact of D9-THC, CBD, Myrcene and B-Caryophyllene on pain and how they interact with each other #Cannabinerds
Next up, fellow de Wit lab alumni Gillinder Bedi discussed the (many) ways that this is not the end for MDMA assisted therapy and how the whole process can be improved upon to support everyone!
One of those key moments in life where you get to see a field leading expert discuss everything they are working on. What an incredible whistle stop tour of ALL the potential applications of current pharmacotherapies for Cannabis Use Disorder from Margaret Haney 🤯 #Cannabinerds
An amazing annual research day for our The Mathison Centre focusing on our research theme of Cannabis and Psychedelics with world leaders in the field Ziva Cooper Gillinder Bedi Margaret Haney Fred Barrett
Last but not least Fred Barrett described a whole host of trials with Psilocybin along with the incredibly complex MDD/AUD clinical trial currently underway at Johns Hopkins Psychedelic Research Center. Fascinating work with some really interesting prospective effects
Our perspectives panel presenters Alaina Jaster, PhD Gillinder Bedi & Neşe Devenot, PhD 🍉 (@NeseLSD.bsky.social)
Our second symposium of the day focused on Ketamine and its impact on mental health and substance use disorders. We had talks from Argel also now @argelaguilarvalles.bsky.social Zoe Hughes & Celia Morgan. #EBPS2024 (my phone does not like this projector, apologies for the yellowness)
Our second keynote comes from psychedelic mechanism extraordinaire Alex Kwan 關進晞. Work from Dr. Kwan’s lab explores the underlying mechanisms of psychedelic drug action, getting down to the receptors and cells responsible for behavioural outcomes and neural plasticity #EBPS2024
Our panel this morning focused on Cannabinoids with talks from leaders in the field Sachin Patel, Francis Lee and Ziva Cooper #EBPS2024
At this point I am just straight up fangirling Margaret Haney 😂
Our second prospectives panel is focused on Unpacking Myths, Fears, and Facts about Drug Policy with presentations from Rebecca Haines-Saah and 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐚 𝐤𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐧𝐚𝐧 My favourite thing to say currently is “Free speech is not free from consequences” and this panel shows why #EBPS2024
