I’m joined today by Doctor Prash Puspanathan, a doctor of medicine at the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Dr. Prash has a Masters in Psychological Medicine and is currently a psychiatric registrar with special interest in the use of psychedelic substances in the treatment of psychological conditions. These conditions include PTSD, treatment resistant depression and the anxiety that comes with terminal illness. He speaks to us today about the profoundly positive effects these substances can have, and the barriers that currently exist when trying to do medical research about them.
