How Psychedelics Rewire Your Brain - Dr. Matthew Johnson, Johns Hopkins University

Dr. Matthew Johnson searches for safe and powerful ways to utilize mind-altering drugs for positive change in psychiatric patients' lives. His psych lab at Johns Hopkins focuses on behavioral modification in the wake of psilocybin, salvia, DMT, and other psychedelic therapies. On this week's episode, Dr. Johnson waxes wild on escaped patients, CIA mind control, and the myriad hijinks and challenges associated with drugging patients in a laboratory. Can psychedelics be harnessed in a clinical setting or will they always require a more wild setting?
