Psychedelics 2.0: Tripping into the Mainstream

Once dismissed as fringe or dangerous, psychedelics are making their way back into the mainstream — this time, through the doors of hospitals and research labs. From 1960s counterculture movements to today’s clinical trials, these substances are being re-examined as potential breakthroughs for treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more.

In this lecture, Ronan Levy — co-founder of Field Trip Health and a leading voice in psychedelic research and innovation — examines the journey of psychedelics from cultural taboo to scientific breakthrough. Drawing on both history and current evidence, he’ll explore what’s driving the psychedelic renaissance, the challenges that remain, and the implications for medicine, policy, and society.

This lecture traces how cultural narratives, legal frameworks, and scientific evidence have shaped the place of psychedelics in society—past, present, and future.

Themes: psychedelics · psilocybin · mental health · clinical research · policy
