At last.

There is simply just one word for this

After publishing a consensus statement, a full special issue and 2 more papers about #psychedelics, all written from the Global North, the American Journal of Bioethics desk rejected a paper from the global south... twice!!! #DecolonizeAcademia πŸ§ͺπŸ§ πŸ“ˆ #PhilSci

You can still contribute to the largest data-gathering effort on real-world psychedelic use by participating in #GPS2025: bit.ly/GPS2025-survey Available in 18 languages, takes 20–30 minutes to complete, and entirely anonymous. The deadline is next week, May 16.

I was invited to join as Editorial Board Member of a new @elsevierconnect.bsky.social journal Here's why I #declined an uncompensated role in #AcademicPublishing 🧡πŸ§ͺπŸ§ πŸ“ˆ

Real world intelligence score = low www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

Our latest CPEP, led by @eirini-k-a.bsky.social exploring ontological shock & existential challenge as extended difficulties following a psychedelic experience - highlighting that grounding practices, integration support, & time were critical in helping participants cope. doi.org/10.1371/jour...

And another #HumanRights journal desk rejected a letter about indigenous rights with an indigenous first author among 4 global south authors. #DecolonizeAcademia

World Press Photo 2025 Winner Mahmoud Ajjour, 9yo is one of ~10000 amputated kids from Gaza 😭

A week that you get two indigenous rights papers led by global south indigenous scholars desk rejected at a human rights and a bioethics journal is... a terrible week πŸ˜• #Academicsky #Philsci #DecolonizeAcademia

A big chunk of #peer-review content feels like #academic-bullying: folks demanding each other to do unpaid extra-extra-extra hours for minor-minor-minor-minor stuff πŸ§ͺ

Can you believe these? I can't: bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #philsci πŸ§ͺπŸ§ πŸ“ˆ

CONSORT 2025 www.nature.com/articles/s41... Did they include reporting blinding assessments? NO!

Developing evidence-based psychedelic treatments demands more than current RCT-based drug approval norms πŸ§ͺπŸ§ πŸ“ˆ In this invited review I elucidate why and point a new path forward: #EvidentialPluralism with utmost care to avoid the #ExtrapolationFallacy bpspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Why is this kind of stuff appearing at #neuroskyence?!?

β€œSo this is my radical proposal for universities: Act like universities, not like businesses. Spend your endowments. Accept more, not fewer students. Open up your campuses and expand your reach not by buying real estate but by bringing education to communities. Create a base. Become a movement.” πŸ§ͺ

Paper accepted, YES πŸ€“ Time to move beyond simplistic 'gold standard' discourse in psychedelic research... #Academicsky #ClinPsych #ClinicalPsychologist #clinicalpsychsky #HistSci #mentalhealth #PsychSciSky #psychology #psychiatry #neuroskyence #PhilSci #Medsky

A decent take on what we are currently being sold as AI. In reality, LLMs can be magnificently useful for a variety of onerous tasks but the story of magical AI the tech industry is selling us is a fiction, a con, and will make you dumber and more beholden to the tech trying to control you.

Magical thinking about RCTs strikes psychedelic research... again! This time by @existwell.bsky.social and @katherinecheung.bsky.social

New review stating the inconvient truth regarding RCTs in #psychiatry: "expectations and blinding integrity are rarely measured" πŸ§ͺ Then why #psychedelic critics repeatedly turned a blind eye to this, pretending psychedelic RCTs were less rigorous than usual ?!? πŸ€” jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...
