Hey everyone!

We (Alice and Molly) are running a study at King’s College London looking at whether psilocybin (magic mushrooms) can boost neuroplasticity and help people learn pitch/musical note detection, a skill that's normally really hard to pick up outside of childhood. We're also looking at whether menstrual cycle hormones influence the psychedelic experience, and whether the experience itself changes hormone levels. This means we are very interested in recruiting women who are not on contraception, although this does not mean you can’t take part if this doesn’t apply to you. 

Pitch Study: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/psilocybin-research-pitch-study

What's involved:

•               3 visits at KCL, Camberwell (Mon-Friday)

•               Two 2-hour visits (screening + follow-up)

•               One full day (9am–6pm), where you take either a microdose or a high dose of psilocybin in a comfortable, supportive space

•               Questionnaires, EEG brain imaging, and a small blood test (hormone panel) before/after

•               Compensated £185 total (travel included)

Run by myself and my colleague Alice (psychiatrist and fellow PhD researcher).
