L. Alison Mcinnes MD, MS

Thank-you so much Owen! I will be working with my friend & former colleague from UCSF, Dr Toby Marton, to implement new rapid acting treatments and measure outcomes in a very large network of patients- exciting!

Join me in being a research subject for the @theborislab.bsky.social dream study. It is a civic duty to be a participant as well as a researcher. I am wearing an EEG cap, face muscle and cardiac monitors etc. I hope my data helps patients with #ptsd dream better. Thx Pillerin Sikka and Ben Deveret

So useful- this should be a part of ketamine training courses for novitiates.

Dream study with @theborislab.bsky.social @laurahack34.bsky.social @acnporg.bsky.social join me in being a research subject!

@alexkwan.bsky.social just gave a fantastic talk at ACNP about the MOA for fear extinction with psilocybin. It involves both 5-HT2A and 1A receptors and circuitry distinct from the head twitch- crowd went wild!

I am a researcher and now I am a research subject in @theborislab.bsky.social & @laurahack.bsky.social dream induction study. I am at ACNP with Laura who is presenting a poster describing it @acnporg.bsky.social

Today I received the SCID prior to my anesthesia session for the #Heifets lab dream study. It’s interesting to be on the other side of these questions. I will start recording my dreams - stay tuned. #ptsd #research #dreams #psychiatryresidency

Reduction in Trauma-Related Symptoms After Anesthetic-Induced Intra-Operative Dreaming - PubMed Reduction in Trauma-Related Symptoms After Anesthetic-Induced Intra-Operative Dreaming

I am a research subject in a highly innovative study that will look at whether anesthesia induced dream states can help patients with PTSD. I will explain more as I progress through the initial phase which will optimize dream induction. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38476046/

Hey Carlene- Dr psychedelic is back on blue sky!

Lots of hard work behind the latest RWE from Osmind in collaboration with Stanford https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230620864223/en/Osmind-Announces-Publication-of-Largest-Real-World-Study-on-Effectiveness-of-Ketamine-Intravenous-Therapy-for-Depression-Anxiety-and-Suicidal-Ideation

At @osmind.bsky.social we have launched Psychiatry Tomorrow and our first episode features @awaisaftab.bsky.social and takes a critical and constructive look at the state of our field. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/psychiatry-tomorrow/id1687358395
