Exciting news today that my collaborators have been granted the first licence in NZ to cultivate Psilocybe ‘magic mushrooms’ for use in helping addiction to methamphetamine. I am providing advice on the mushrooms. #mycology 🧪

Congrats! I've heard so many good things about mushrooms, they also seem to treat depression.

Do you know if they're still looking for people in the trials? :) I've done srooms in the past and loved it.

The first trial will only be about 12 people
