What is it about?
A professor offers an elective course to pharmacy students in the U.S. on the subject of psychedelics, such as LSD and psilocybin (the active chemical in "magic mushrooms"). In addition to learning about how psychedelics are used throughout the world, students learned about the latest research for using psychedelics to treat mental illness. Students learned skills that are broadly applicable to their careers, such as how to read and critically interpret scientific articles.
