Show notes

On this week’s episode of "The Readout Loud": a look at an emerging class of psychedelic drugs that may treat depression, anxiety, and other psychiatric conditions without the hallucinogenic “trip.” Plus, a dash through the week’s biotech news.

Our special guest this week is David Olson, director of the UC Davis Institute for Psychedelics and Neurotherapeutics and the co-founder of Delix Therapeutics, a startup that is developing a new class of neuropsychiatric medicines that are similar to psychedelics in that they can exert strong and rapid therapeutic benefits, but without the hallucinogenic effects.
