It is widely assumed that the effects of psychedelic substances critically depend on context - the ‘set and setting’ in which they are used. With the Set and Setting Study, we aim to test this interaction in a controlled way, by giving participants either psilocybin or placebo in one of two different kinds of context.

The study will be taking place at the UCSF Mission Bay campus in San Francisco and is currently enrolling participants with lower-than-average well-being but no serious underlying physical or mental health conditions. Check if you are eligible by clicking the button below!
