Very important study showing encouraging safety and signals for efficacy for psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy in Bipolar depression. Very exciting to see emerging treatments being studied for this condition which has very limited effective treatments at present.
Psilocybin-Assisted Psychotherapy for Treatment-Resistant Depression in Bipolar II Disorder | Psychedelic Medicine "no evidence of treatment emergent mania, hypomania or psychosis observed in any participants."

What a thoughtful study design and interesting finding - exploring changes in Bayesian belief updating, as potential mechanisms of therapeutic response. Well done team 👏
Computational model of the enduring effects of psilocybin, via the optimism bias, and w/fitting of behavioural data (from rats) to active inference model. Led by @bethfisher_1, in collaboration between @Monash_M3CS, @ClaireFoldi Lab and @RyanSmith_LIBR OA👇

Just saw this incredible body of work investigating BOLD signal variability in FND, including longitudinal / follow-up analysis. Very intrigued by the increased SMA variability corresponding with improved outcomes at FU. 👏 @SelmaAybek
