1/ In AJOB @bioethics_net @MasonMarksMD and I have a new open-access paper "Psychedelic Medicine Exceptionalism." tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…
Here is the abstract
"Research on psychedelic medicines is experiencing a revival.
While #Colorado has a $1 billion budget shortfall, lawmakers are attempting to pass a trigger bill tied to FDA approval of #psilocybin, an uncertain event that could be years in the future. States spent resources on similar bills for MDMA, and FDA declined to approve the drug.
#Psilocybin service center bans pass in 16 of 17 Oregon jurisdictions this week.

I spoke with @NPR's @WStoneReports on FDA's denial of Lykos' #MDMA. Despite understandable disappointment, we can be optimistic about the future of #psychedelic research for Lykos and other firms. FDA, NIH & NIDA have opened there minds to #psychedelics.

I just started working in my hospital's #addiction clinic (as if primary care isn't difficult enough..). Please check out my blog on what does and doesn't work in addiction treatment.

I wrote about the FDA advisory committee meeting on Lykos MDMA-AT. #FDA is expected to respond by August 11.
In this @JAMA_current piece, I discuss the committee's votes and what they mean for future #psychedelic research with #psilocybin, #LSD, #MDMA.

The Massachusetts #Cannabis Commission isn't doing well. "The agency overseeing the state's $6 billion marijuana industry has been in turmoil for a year, with numerous high-level departures, 20 vacant positions and allegations of a toxic work environment."

As the meeting adjourns, it's clear the FDA's #psychedelic advisory committee almost universally opposes #FDA approval of Lykos #MDMA-AT, even with REMS. I applaud all parties for a very open meeting with deep discussion that seemingly left no issue unexamined.

The #FDA advisory committee meeting on #MDMA #psychedelic therapy has taken a turn. While addressing the first discussion question (below), the committee's comments have been overwhelmingly critical of data presented by Lykos, mirroring opinions of @icer_review.

Very much looking forward to attending and presenting at @Harvard_Law’s @PetrieFlom on ethical and legal issues related to experiential training in #psychedelic therapy programs. Some amazing topics lined up! petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/e…
