Description
This is a free, in-person talk hosted on September 22, 2026 at 5:30 PM by New Richmond Community Library. No registration required for this event. There will not be a virtual option.
Psychedelics such as LSD (“acid”) and psilocybin (“magic mushrooms”) were scorned by the medical community for decades, but recent evidence suggests these drugs can treat some of the most intractable psychiatric disorders. Psychedelics show a lot of promise, but also generate a lot of unfounded hype.
