Dr. Robin Carhart-Harris, Director of the Centre for Psychedelic Research at Imperial College London, explains the chemical processes that occur in the brain during a psychedelic trip in this sample from the Idler Online Course, "The Science of Psychedelics".
ABOUT THE COURSE
Join Dr Robin Carhart-Harris, Head of the Centre for Psychedelic Research at Imperial College London, as he takes you on a trip through the science of psychedelics.
In six lectures, beginning with a lesson on how psychedelic substances work in the brain, you’ll be guided through the past and present of psychedelic research. On the way, you’ll celebrate “Bicycle Day”, see how scientists are using cutting-edge brain-scanning techniques to understand what happens when we trip, and get up to date on the latest breakthroughs in the use of psychedelic substances like psilocybin to treat depression and other conditions.
By the end of this course, you’ll be able to tell psilocybin from DMT and mescaline from LSD, you’ll understand the chemical processes that trigger a trip, and you’ll be an expert in the contemporary arguments over legalisation.
