Not many people know this, but yes, many psychedelics will be FDA approved. Can’t wait to see the TV ads 😂.
By the end of 2027 we very likely will have FDA-approved psilocybin, MDMA, and LSD. Wild.

LFG!!! 🇺🇸
Folarin Balogun will be available to play the USMNT’s round of 16 match against Belgium, with his one-game red-card ban that he received against Bosnia and Herzegovina suspended. Article 27 of FIFA’s disciplinary code states that “the judicial body may decide to fully or partially suspend the implementation of a disciplinary measure.” nyti.ms/3RkeoH5

We’ve made carbon to carbon bonds at the 4-position of tryptamines for the first time. So much #neuroplastogen chemical white space that we’re tapping into @psilera.

Even more important is this financing readies us for clinical trials with PSIL-006 next year. We are well-positioned with an industry-leading patent portfolio and a differentiated #neuroplastogen pipeline. Stay tuned for some big milestones over the next 12 months!

Will be a great time in Miami with @Oppenheimer and other CNS leaders. We’re reaching a pivotal inflection in the #psychedelics and related #neuroplastogens. Look forward to discussing these developments and the latest progress at @psilera.
Co-Founder and CEO Chris Witowski, PhD, is a featured panelist at #Oppenheimer's #CNS Focus Event in #Miami 6/10/26 To meet with him and learn the latest about our #neuroplastogen pipeline, email us at [email protected] #Innovation #Psychedelics #DrugDiscovery #MindfulMedicine

Get ready, multiple #psychedelic drug approvals are coming. New options for patients, who often don’t respond to current treatments, is a great thing for depression and PTSD (~35 million in the US alone).
Following President Trump’s directive to accelerate medical treatments for serious mental illnesses, FDA announced major steps to support the development of serotonin-2A agonists & related products—a class of medications historically referred to as "psychedelic" drugs. ✅ National priority vouchers for psilocybin (for treatment-resistant depression and major depressive disorder) ✅ National priority voucher for methylone (for post-traumatic stress disorder) ✅ First-ever noribogaine study authorized for alcohol use disorder ✅ Advancing guidance for sponsors developing these products Learn more: fda.gov/news-events/press-an…

Love this. The thing that’s never squared with me on autonomous vehicles is that it’s still 1 car 1 person. Traffic and time are still the same. Look at rail in Europe/abroad people use it hundreds of years later for a fraction of a car.
There's never been an investment like the investment in railroads. (This graph has a log scale!)

Even better idea: connect this rail to downtown St. Pete. Can be done <30 min even in rush hour. Once in a generation opportunity that benefits all of Tampa Bay. This is the way.
