No.
What’s your favourite psychedelic compound?
I believe psilocybin likely has the best prospects for effective treatment of mental illness.

Have you had an experience with mental health/chronic pain?
Yes, with chronic pain.
What’s your vision of the industry in 20 years?
I anticipate that psychedelics will be in widespread use in treating mental illness.
What are your biggest worries for the industry?
Inconclusive studies.
Who are your heroes?
The guys at Microdose of course!
