Description: Researchers at NYUSOM are conducting a trial that investigates the effects and possible utility of psilocybin-facilitated experiences for professional religious leaders. Researchers believe that religious professionals, given their interests, will be able to make nuanced discriminations of their psilocybin experiences, thus contributing to the scientific understanding of the mystical type experience. Qualified participants will receive medical evaluation and investigational treatment at no cost. Total length of participation in the trial ranges from 1.5 to 2 years depending on randomization assignment. No compensation will be given for participant’s time.
