The Neurobiology Research Unit (NRU) at Copenhagen University Hospital has been carrying out clinical and preclinical research with psychedelics since 2017. The team at the NRU utilizes various neuroimaging techniques to better understand how psychedelics exert their effects on the brain. They have published numerous peer-reviewed articles on psychedelics and facilitated numerous medium-dose psilocybin sessions. The NRU is led by Professor Gitte Moos Knudsen.

Multi-metric evaluations of acute psychedelic effects on fMRI brain entropy

This brain imaging study (n=28) examined how psilocybin affected several fMRI-based measures of brain entropy in healthy volunteers. Some entropy metrics rose with subjective and objective drug effects, but many did not change and the measures were only weakly related to each other, suggesting they do not capture a single brain process.
