The Science of Microdosing with Neuroscientist Maria Balaet

What Seed Talks have to say about their event:

Microdosing is rising in popularity by the day. This practice consists of taking very low doses of psychedelics such as LSD or psilocybin (the active component of magic mushrooms). Personal and anecdotal accounts coming from public figures are supporting the idea that microdosing could be immensely beneficial to our mental wellbeing. It is speculated that microdosing could improve performance at work, stimulate creativity, alleviate symptoms of depression or anxiety and enhance cognitive function.

Yet the scientific community is currently debating the evidence on microdosing being able to elicit real effects. Is it objectively enhancing productivity, creativity and mental health, or is it a placebo? This talk is going to explore the latest evidence regarding the mechanisms and effectiveness of microdosing in a range of scenarios.
