### title

NEUROSCIENCE OF PSYCHEDELICS

### description

Explore the neural mechanisms of the therapeutic effects of serotonergic psychedelics, focusing on how the actions of these drugs at specific serotonin receptor subtypes might couple to cellular, network, and behavioral effects, and how these mechanisms intersect with current models of the neural basis of perception, cognition, and consciousness. Not open to students with credit for PHARMACY 632 prior to fall 2026.

### requirements text

PSYCH/​ZOOLOGY  523,PSYCH/​NEURODPT/​NTP  611, PHARMACY 770,PHM SCI 770, or graduate/professional standing. Not open to students with credit for NTP 632.
