exploring the potential use of psychedelics in palliative care
This panel will engage in a discussion about the potential utility of psychedelics in palliative care. The current state of clinical research will be addressed, as well as future directions and current gaps in the literature. What can psychedelics offer the terminally ill that current treatment options cannot? And how might psychedelics be integrated into the existing palliative care practices? Attendees will have the opportunity to learn about this topic from expert panellists with a wealth of experience working with terminally ill patients, as well as extensive academic resumes.
