Why do you support the BTG? Supporting BTG is a pleasure and an appropriate way to contribute to the paradigm shift of the scientific community and to overcome the past and conservative ways of thinking. Since InSight 2019, I am convinced that the MIND Foundation will make an important contribution to global networking as well as to the education of psychedelic research. When I attended lectures on the functions of brain plasticity and neurophysiology during my undergraduate studies, I always asked myself the question: how did the human brain evolve to be so vulnerable to respond to input from both inside and outside with complex behavioral concepts on the one hand, and to constantly renew or repair itself on top of that? Psychedelics and the mechanisms revealed by research lead us to a deeper understanding of our brain and its nature from the inside out.
