Scientists at the University of Michigan’s “Center for
Conscious Science” will hold an on-campus symposium in September in which they
will explore “psychedelics,” or mind-altering drugs, in a purported attempt to
“study the effects and potential medical uses of various psychoactive
substances.” “Psychedelic
Neuroscience Symposium” officials are urging neuroscientists, cognitive
scientists, psychologists and clinicians to attend the gala.
Psychedelic drugs include substances such as
psilocybin mushrooms and LSD and can significantly alter consciousness and lead
to bizarre audio-visual experiences. These potentially dangerous substances act
primarily upon the central nervous system, where they can also cause temporary changes
in perception, mood, emotion and behavior. Who knew Woodstock was a
“Psychedelic Neuroscience Symposium?”
Democrats are apparently already
taking part in the new study if their recent debates are any indication.
