Can psychedelics revolutionise psychiatry?

My talk will explain the how and the why of the new psychedelic renaissance, from brain science to clinical trials in mental illness. I will explain how these drugs can treat many different disorders including some neurological as well as psychiatric ones and how they differ in many beneficial ways from current medicines we use.
