Medical or Recreational? States Debate Where Psychedelics Belong
A wave of new research is showing the promise of psychedelics to help with mental health conditions — like depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. The federal government continues to say it’s illegal to use these substances for treatment, but states like Oregon and Colorado are attempting to roll out regulated use. In this episode, we talk with Mason Marks from the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School about the latest research, regulation and legal gray areas on psychedelics.
