Psychedelics and Synpatic Plasticity

This goes in the direction of my thesis that psychedelics can induce temporary plasticity allowing for a neural remapping, thus allowing to go beyond stuck habits and prejudices.


Adapted from the Maps forum

One interesting study analyzed LSD effects. It was found was that it stimulated expression in genes related to "synaptic plasticity" - that is, the brain's ability to rewire itself, metaphorically speaking - and genes related to memory consolidation. This suggests that LSD experiences do indeed encourage learning on very powerful and basic levels.
