MAPS, the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, has announced its international conference on psychedelic research will take place April 15-18 in San Jose, California. The conference will bring together international experts on psychedelic substances and will be the largest such conference to take place in the United States in 17 years.

The Psychedelic Science in the 21st Century conference is open to the general public and registration information is available at www.maps.org/conference.

Some of the studies to be presented at the conference will examine: MDMA in treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder, psilocybin (the psychedelic compound in psychedelic mushrooms) in treating anxiety associated with life-threatening illnesses, LSD-assisted psychotherapy in patients with anxiety associated with life-threatening illnesses, and the recreational, spiritual and cultural uses of psychedelics.
