Episode 46: Manesh Girn: Psychedelics and Brain Networks
Manesh Girn talks to us about the effects of psychedelics on the brain, based on his recent paper, "A complex systems perspective on psychedelic brain action [https://neuroscape.ucsf.edu/wp-content/uploads/publication/1-s2.0-S1364661323000219-main.pdf]". We discuss the current state of psychedelics as therapeutics, and how information theory can model changes in brain states that result from taking psychedelics.
Special Guest: Manesh Girn.
