Beyond Psychedelics: Augmenting Mood Enhancing Effects - UC Davis Psychedelic Summit 2023

Dhakshin Ramanathan, M.D., Ph.D., assistant professor in residency for psychiatry at ‪@UCSanDiego‬, discusses “Beyond Psychedelics: Augmenting Mood Enhancing Effects with Personalized Plasticity-Based Interventions.” The lecture was recorded March 23, 2023, at the Psychedelic Summit on the UC Davis Health campus in Sacramento, California.

The UC Davis Psychedelic Summit brought together national experts to explore what the rapidly evolving field of psychedelics and neurotherapeutics may mean for neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases. These new treatment types may hold promise for anxiety, depression, substance use, obsessive-compulsive and post-traumatic stress disorders, among others. The event was hosted by the UC Davis Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, the UC Davis Institute for Psychedelics and Neurotherapeutics, and the UC Davis Behavioral Health Center for Excellence.
