UC Berkeley launched the first neuroimaging study focused on whether psilocybin can support healthy aging in adults aged 60–85. Researchers are investigating whether psychedelics increase neuroplasticity, improve emotional regulation, boost social connection, and promote feelings of awe. The study will use MRI scans and cognitive assessments before and after a psilocybin experience.

Test strips are your first line of defense. Fentanyl, xylazine, and nitazenes are showing up in substances where people don't expect them. Screening answers one question: Is something potentially dangerous hiding in here?

Trulieve will become the first U.S. cannabis company listed on the New York Stock Exchange after restructuring to focus solely on medical marijuana operations. The move could bring more investment and legitimacy to the industry, but it could also accelerate corporate consolidation and make it harder for smaller cannabis businesses to compete.

Psilocybin may help improve medication effectiveness for those suffering from nerve pain. Researchers found that a single dose of psilocybin reduced chronic nerve pain in mice and enhanced the effectiveness of gabapentin, a commonly prescribed nerve pain medication. Mice that received psilocybin responded much better to gabapentin weeks later, even after psilocybin's direct effects had worn off. Researchers believe psilocybin may "reset" pain-processing networks in the brain, making existing treatments more effective.

AI is increasingly being used in cannabis cultivation to monitor plant health, optimize growing conditions, and improve yields. Supporters see greater efficiency and consistency, while critics worry about consolidation and the loss of traditional cultivation expertise.

Overdose deaths fell about 14% in a year. That's real, and it happened due to naloxone reaching more people, drug checking services, and harm reduction efforts expanding. Cutting those exact tools now, while they're working, is hard to make sense of.

A negative fentanyl test does not mean your substance is what you think it is. 💡 Test strips only check for one specific substance. Even if your sample is free of fentanyl, you’ll still need reagent testing to help identify what’s actually in it. For the best results, finish by verify your reactions using the Transparency Harm Reduction App. 📲

The WNBA just removed cannabis from its banned substances list and created rules for player endorsements. The move reflects growing acceptance of cannabis in sports, but it also raises questions about how commercialization could shape the industry's future.

An 80-year-old woman with advanced Alzheimer's experienced a dramatic but temporary improvement after receiving psilocybin. Reported improvements included speaking in full sentences, recalling memories, regaining bladder control, dressing herself, and engaging socially. A follow-up dose was associated with further gains in verbal expression, humor, and mobility. The findings come from a single-patient case study, meaning much more research is needed before drawing broader conclusions.

One reagent is a guess. Two or more build a chemical fingerprint that catches the substitutions and misrepresented substances that a single test was never designed to detect.

A case series examined three people with traumatic brain injuries who underwent the same ibogaine-based treatment protocol. Researchers reported improvements in cognition, mood, energy, sleep, and quality of life following treatment. The protocol combined ibogaine treatment with extensive preparation, medical oversight, and follow-up support. Ibogaine is believed to promote neuroplasticity and may help the brain form new connections after injury.
