Meet the doctor who changed the TGA’s mind on psychedelics
Psychedelic medicine 'is not some sort of blissful journey to meet God,' says Professor David Nutt.
Professor David Nutt is unapologetic for advocating medical use of MDMA and psilocybin.
A former drugs adviser to the UK Government, he has been researching psychedelics for almost two decades, trying to find a cure for entrenched mental illness.
He describes it as a fight against “the worst censorship in the history of the world”.
The multinational criminalisation of psychedelics in the 1960s put the brakes on what was, until then, a fast-moving field of scientific research.
