PSBE Webinar - 2-BR-LSD its potential therapeutic effects

Psychedelic Society Belgium

As part of the Psychedelic Society Belgium’s free webinar series, this event supports our mission to foster accessible, thoughtful, and evidence-based dialogue around psychedelic science, therapy, culture, and society.In this webinar, we welcome Argel Aguilar Valles. Argel Aguillar Valles (Ph.D., McGill University) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Neuroscience at Carleton University (Ottawa, Canada). His laboratory investigates the pathological mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders, with a primary focus on the role of mRNA translation regulators. Furthermore, they investigate the molecular mechanisms of the therapeutic action of ketamine and serotonergic psychedelics. They have received funding from the Brain Canada, Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), the International Brain Research Organization (IBRO), the Burroughs Wellcome Fund, and MITACS Accelerate. He and his team have published over 40 original research articles, reviews and book chapters, and their work has been cited over 2450 times.What gives psychedelics their long-lasting therapeutic effects — and could these benefits exist without hallucinations?In this webinar, the author of this recent study will present new research on the molecular and cellular mechanisms behind the lasting effects of psychedelics and their non-hallucinogenic derivatives. Focusing on depression and treatment-resistant depression, the talk will explore how compounds such as psilocybin and 2-Br-LSD may promote neuroplasticity, support myelination, and reverse stress-related behavioural changes.This session will offer an accessible overview of cutting-edge preclinical findings and their potential implications for the future of psychedelic-inspired mental health treatments.This event will be of interest to therapists, clinicians, researchers, students, and anyone curious about emerging questions in therapist development, wellbeing, and psychedelic research.
