New study provides insights into the neurophysiological basis of psilocybin-induced alterations in consciousness
New research published in iScience provides unique insights into how psilocybin alters brain activity during psychedelic experiences. The findings suggest that while the overall activity of the brain becomes more chaotic during the psychedelic state, the brain’s ability to maintain complex interactions in response to external stimulation is not affected. Psilocybin is a naturally occurring …
