Limits and debate
Subjective reports of meaningful experiences do not by themselves establish a metaphysical explanation or prove lasting clinical benefit.
This summarizes the researcher's work. It is not a finding that any theory of consciousness or survival has been proven.
Overview
Yaden is the Roland Griffiths Professor of Psychedelic Research at Johns Hopkins. His research examines psychedelic and psychedelic-like states, how brief experiences can shape longer-term well-being, and how to measure benefits, risks, and ethical issues.
