UW Madison Psychedelic Symposium Day 2
The University of Wisconsin Madison Transdisciplinary Center for Research in Psychoactive Substances is pleased to announce our 2021 Psychedelic Symposium, to be offered on November 4th & 5th, 2021.
The Symposium will be held on campus in the Wisconsin Institutes of Discovery DeLuca Forum. Highlighting scholarly work being performed in this field at the UW-Madison, as well as featuring nationally renowned keynote speakers, this Symposium is intended for researchers and clinicians in the areas of clinical psychology, psychiatry, pharmacy, nursing, and social work and will offer continuing education hours.
The Symposium will include updates on the exploratory use of MDMA in the treatment of PTSD, and psilocybin for depression and substance use disorders. The phenomenology of psychedelic experiences will be discussed, as well as historical, environmental, and cultural implications of the use of traditional psychedelics. Barriers to access to this clinical research that exist for underserved populations will be explored, along with suggestions to address these barriers and expand access in future research.
