University of California, Davis, researchers have developed a new, neuroplasticity-promoting drug closely related to LSD that ...

A team at UC Davis has created a new drug called JRT that mimics LSD’s brain-healing effects without the hallucinogenic side ...

The modified LSD, which they named JRT, did just that—and more. It stimulated neurons to sprout new dendritic branches and ...

LSD has always been a source of fascination for Olson because of its outstanding ability to form and strengthen neural ...

Research highlights the potential for modifying the chemical structures of psychedelics to produce analogues with improved ...

Psychedelics drugs with the hallucinatory effects shut down show promise in reconnecting broken neural synaptic connections, which are the cause of some grave diseases.

The team at UC Davis set out to answer a difficult question: Can you keep the benefits of LSD while removing the hallucinogenic effects that make it unsafe for many patients? The researchers focused ...

To design the drug, dubbed JRT, researchers flipped the position of just two atoms in LSD’s molecular structure. The chemical flip reduced JRT’s hallucinogenic potential while maintaining its ...
