I wasn't sure what board to put this on, but I think this one is relevant enough.

It's is a research study from '97ish that uses PET scanning to study the neural phenomenon of the mind under the influence of our old friend, Psilocybin. They treat the trip as 'induced psychosis' (the subjects weren't mentally ill though)  more in terms of psychiatry than anything else. I know not every likes to reduce things down to brain activity but the "Discussions" part is quite interesting. It's really technical though... I barely understood very much of it so don't get bad if you can either. had

It's great to see scientist utilizing psychedelics to try to understand mental heath, and as of now, I happen to know of at least one also using tryptamines to study Major Depression. There's also numerous pharmaceutical clinical trials already in Phase II for Ketamine (low dose IV'ed 3 times a week) and a few other novel NDMA antagonists as anti-depressants and from what I heard that they're doing quite well.
