Psychedelic therapy is quickly gaining recognition as a possible treatment for psychiatric illness across much of the diagnostic spectrum. This talk will focus on the early evidence for the safety and efficacy of psychedelic therapy within patients with particularly difficult to treat presentations of depression including bipolar type II depression, depression with chronic active suicidal ideation and severely treatment resistant depression. Insights will be shared from the experience of a master clinical researcher as he explored the use of psilocybin.

Battles over the role of “race” in education and the structures that uphold racial privilege and inequity burst into the national spotlight in the 2020s. But the origins of the debate, and the politics that undergird it, track back decades, and play out in unexpected ways. In this thought-provoking talk, Dr. Metzl provides an analysis of how, within the sociopolitical context of the 1960s and 1970s, the intersection of race and mental health altered the way that mental illness was diagnosed, understood, and treated in the United States. Once considered a nonthreatening disease that primarily targeted white middle-class women, Metzl provides an historical exploration of how schizophrenia became associated with the perceived hostility, rebellion, mistrust, and violence of Black men during the Civil Rights movement.
