Drs. @WalterKaye and @drknatzpeck are conducting a study evaluating the use of psychedelic-assisted therapy for anorexia nervosa. We are excited to be one of the first sites to be studying psilocybin’s potential for eating disorders alongside @JHPsychedelics and @Imperial_PRG!

The article challenges long-standing theories about eating disorders, as new research suggests that biology is a powerful driver of this disorder. This article cites new findings from UC San Diego’s Eating Disorders Clinic, led by Dr. Walter Kaye.
