This is your brain on drugs...happier?

Welcome to the nineteenth episode of Junto Club.

This is one of our more controversial episodes as we talk about depression, anxiety and the treatment of mental health conditions using hallucinogens. This includes diving into the neuroscience and behavioral science related to these conditions as well as the pharmacology of the legal and illegal treatments for these conditions. We discuss why these drugs may or may not work for certain people, and Jake provides insights based on first hand experiences.

We’ll be putting out new episodes in May. Matt and Shu are defending their dissertations over the next couple of weeks.

In the mean time, for any questions, comments or if you’d like to rant on something important to you, email: juntoclubpodcast@gmail.com

This is the Junto Club.
