Cognitive and Emotional Impact of Microdoses of LSD | Kim Kuypers, PhD | Microdosing.nl

Cognitive and Emotional Impact of Microdoses of LSD Microdosing (MD) with psychedelics has gained considerable attention and visibility in the media, where it is portrayed as a performance and creativity enhancing means especially popular on the work floor. While reports are in general positive, scientific evidence on the potential negative effects is lacking aside from the prevalence and motives to use. In addition, next to the anecdotal reports on beneficial effects attributed to microdosing it is not clear whether these effects are due to users’ expectancy or truly induced by the substance and quantifiable by means of lab measures. To address the aforementioned gaps we’ve set up two studies, an online survey to gain insight in the dosing schedule, motivation and potential experienced negative effects of microdosing and a placebo-controlled experimental study to assess the acute effects of LSD microdosing. In my talk, I will discuss the findings and associated implications in relation to potential therapeutic applications. Kim Kuypers, PhD works as an assistant professor at Maastricht University. Her research focusses on understanding the neurobiology underlying creativity, empathy and well-being. To accomplish this she uses a psychopharmacological model, studying the acute, subacute and longer lasting effects of psychedelics on these behaviors and biology. The generated knowledge can be used to enhance flexible thinking and social abilities in the daily life of pathological populations and consequently enhancing their quality of life and feelings of wellbeing.
