Setting up a psychedelic study can be a long, arduous, and Kafkaesque process. Researchers are faced with a host of challenges in this rapidly evolving field, necessitating a range of considerations that remain largely unstandardised. Many of the complexities inherent to psychedelic research also challenge existing assumptions around, for example, approaches to psychiatric prescribing, the...
Psychosis and visual hallucinations (VH) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) substantially impact patient outcomes, yet the underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear, limiting effective treatments. Here we used dynamic causal modeling to leverage the fast temporal dynamics captured with electroencephalography data during a visual mismatch negativity task in people with PD with (N = 20) and without (N...
