The Levy Inspiration Grant Program, managed by the Entrepreneurship team at the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University, is an immersive funding program that allows students to travel to a place that they have (usually) never been to learn about big, gnarly problems that the world is facing and how those problems might be solved through entrepreneurship. When they return, each student sits down with us to share their newly-acquired knowledge with the community, allowing us to build an ever-growing collection of knowledge and stories. Join us as we follow the journeys of each of our students across the world where they live out the program's singular motto: go see for yourself.

A Deeper Understanding of Psychedelic-Assisted Therapies with Christina Kappil and Jim Brazeal
When Australia revised its drug classifications in 2023 to make psychedelic substances like MDMA and psilocybin legal for treatment of some medical conditions, a new industry was born. Now moving out of clinical trials and studies phase, psychedelic-assisted therapies have shown to be efficacious for patients who were previously struggling with other less-effective mental health treatments.
When Christina Kappil and Jim Brazeal learned of this news from Australia, they didn't hesitate to jump in and put together an Inspiration Grant itinerary to get on the ground and learn how this industry was building itself in real-time. Along the way, they met with clinicians, researchers, investors, and other experts to see what they were learning as they went, with hopes that this live-saving treatment could soon make its way to places like the U.S. and expand to help as many people as possible.
This is their Inspiration Grant story.
