This interdisciplinary conference brings together leading voices from anthropology, medicine, psychology, religion, and the arts to explore how diverse ways of knowing can inform the responsible integration of psychedelic therapies into modern healthcare. ​Join us for a day of presentations that traverse the boundaries between laboratory and ceremony, clinic and community. Our distinguished speakers will examine how Indigenous practices inform contemporary therapeutic protocols, how religious traditions shape our understanding of consciousness and healing, and how principles of harm reduction learned from ceremonial contexts can guide clinical applications. ​Featured speakers include: ​Nate Greenslit, PhD, Berklee College of Music ​Jenna Cluckey, Massachusetts General Hospital ​Andrea Sánchez-Castañeda, PhD, Center for World Religions at Harvard University ​Dan Brenner, PhD, Cambridge Biotherapeutics ​Frédérique Apffel-Marglin, PhD, Sachamama Center for BioCultural Regeneration ​Chloe Jordan, PhD, Boston University ​Carolina Haass-Koffler, PhD, Brown University ​Maha Mian, PhD, Suffolk University ​Featured topics include: ​Current clinical trials and their implications for treatment protocols ​Indigenous knowledge systems and their contributions to therapeutic and restorative justice practices ​Religious and spiritual dimensions of psychedelic healing ​Community-based harm reduction models and their clinical applications ​Clinical trial progress on psilocybin as a therapeutic for irritable bowel syndrome ​And more TBA! ​This gathering offers a unique opportunity to engage with the multifaceted nature of psychedelic medicine, honoring both scientific rigor and Indigenous wisdom as we collectively navigate the path toward culturally informed therapeutic practices. ​Reserve your seat today.
