A Prescription for Magic Mushrooms? The Renewed Interest in Psilocybin Research

Presented at the SCI Forum February 28, 2024

Although psychedelics have often been associated with religious and recreational use, there has been a recent renewed focus on psychedelics, particularly psilocybin, for the treatment of various medical conditions. Please take a trip with Dan Mobley, PharmD, Inpatient Spinal Cord Injury Clinical Pharmacist Practitioner at VA Puget Sound Health Care System, in this presentation as we explore psilocybin’s history, pharmacology, and recently published trials. We will also review the current legal classification of psilocybin, future trials, and how the use of psychedelics may, or may not, fit in to your SCI rehabilitation.

Presentation time: 68 minutes. After watching, please complete our two-minute survey!
