STEAMinar: Psilocybin: From Molecule to Medicine

What happens in the brain during a psychedelic experience, and what might it teach us about the future of medicine?

Join the STEAM Committee and Audrey Tharp, M.Sc., founder of Hot Girl Pharma, for an engaging exploration of psilocybin’s journey from psychoactive compound to potential therapeutic. Discover how researchers are studying its effects on brain signaling, neural networks, and neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to adapt and form new connections.

Together, we’ll explore the promise of psychedelic research and the questions still driving the field: What contributes to the therapeutic effects observed in clinical studies, and what role does the psychedelic experience itself play?

Bring your curiosity for an evening at the intersection of neuroscience, consciousness, and medicine.
