E-BOOK PSYLOCYBIN

The research published in the journal NATURE on July 17, 2024, contributes to the understanding of how psychedelics affect the functional connectivity of the brain and opens avenues for future clinical and therapeutic studies.

RESULTS

The results show that psilocybin causes a significant desynchronization in the brain's functional connectivity, especially in default mode networks (DMNs) and the association cortex. This desynchronization was measured using normalized spatial entropy (NGSC) and correlated with participants' subjective experience. The results indicate an increase in the spatial complexity of neural signals during psilocybin administration, with a return to baseline levels after the drug leaves the system.
