The NYU Langone Psychedelic Medicine Research Training Program provides comprehensive support and mentoring for early-career scientists pursuing psychedelic research. Launched in 2020 by NYU Langone's Center for Psychedelic Medicine, this program aims to develop independent research careers focused on psychedelic and psychedelic-inspired treatments.
Trainees receive partial or full salary and benefits for up to 5 years, along with mentorship and funding to complete a research project. The training encompasses proposal development, study implementation, data analysis, grant applications, and more. Weekly seminars led by program directors provide guidance, accountability, and community.
This innovative program builds capacity and sustainability in this emerging field by fostering the next generation of psychedelic scientists. Graduates gain the knowledge, experience, and networks to conduct rigorous studies expanding psychedelics' therapeutic applications.
The Center for Psychedelic Medicine at NYU Langone Health is directed by Dr. Michael Bogenschutz and performs health-focused research across the translational spectrum, from basic science to large-phase clinical trials. The center has three transdisciplinary areas of focus: psychiatry, medicine, and preclinical research. Currently, the team is actively investigating clinical applications for various psychedelic compounds, leading robust studies on psilocybin-assisted therapy for alcohol use disorder, major depression, and advanced cancer-related psychiatric distress.
