Multidisciplinary Association For Psychedelic Studies
Invite reviews
Having worked closely with MAPS on a couple occasions, I am continually surprised by how dedicated, courageous, and skillful this organization is. No other organization that I know of has been as successful overcoming systemic bias to introduce wonderful therapies to a growing mainstream audience. They have done a commendable job at pooling their resources to assist researchers conducting studies that, in my opinion, are essential to the future of psychiatry. No other nonprofit that I know of has been so willing to defy societal taboos for what they believe is right. As an attendee of their recent conference, I must say that MAPS exceeded my highest expectations in every way imaginable.

MAPS is an organization that is helping scientists further the research into the potential uses of psychedelic compounds for the benefit of humanity. These misunderstood chemicals have such great potential but a greatly disparaged view by industrialized society. MAPS will be a leader in the progress of scientific research into the biology, effects, and use of psychedelics.

While working in the scientific medical community I have heard several overwhelming statements of praise and support for MAPS. Their support is critical for furthering research in areas of science that are discriminated against by government.
