Aubrey Marcus Podcast

Where would we be if psychedelic research was never halted? We’ll never be able to answer that question, but the exciting thing is that we are currently living through the renaissance of psychedelic science, and today’s podcast is with one of the leading experts of this movement. Dr. Matthew W. Johnson, Ph.D., is a Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Johns Hopkins. He is one of the world’s most published scientists on the human effects of psychedelics, and is on the front line of resurrecting psychedelic research. In today’s episode, we dive into the current state of psychedelic research, and we posit potential upcoming applications for a variety of psychedelic compounds (DMT, Psilocybin, MDMA, Ketamine, etc.). More generally, this discussion was a beautiful merger between my experiential knowledge and Dr. Matthew Johnson’s scientific findings. He is someone who I admire for his curious attitude (true to the original understanding of science) towards topics that most people dismiss. Connect wi
