Description

In this episode, Dr. Jerry Rosenbaum and Dr. Sharmin Ghaznavi offer a rare look into academia’s role in the psychedelic renaissance, tracing the origins of Mass General’s Center for the Neuroscience of Psychedelics. They discuss how their shared interest in rumination—and its role in treatment-resistant mental illness—led them to explore psilocybin’s effects on brain connectivity. The conversation spans everything from neuroplasticity and default mode networks to the challenges of securing funding, the limits of industry-driven research, and what’s next in training the next generation of psychiatrists. It’s an honest, far-reaching discussion about where the science stands—and where it still needs to go.
