APRA is an interdisciplinary academic association for university students, researchers and professionals focusing on psychedelic substances (e.g. LSD, psilocybin) for their therapeutic effects or scientific value. We aim to provide high quality education about developments in psychedelic science, destigmatize research in this field and foster an interdisciplinary network within the Amsterdam institutions. In practice, we aim to: - Provide information to students and researchers about developments in academic research on psychedelics through lectures, journal clubs and symposia. - Diminish unscientific stigma within academia and help normalize the status of education and research in this field.- Promote the start of a concerted, interdisciplinary research effort in this direction within the Amsterdam institutions.APRA does not encourage illegal drug use outside controlled research and medical contexts, and promotes all available harm-reduction strategies. University students, researchers or faculty based at Amsterdam institutions, that are interested in actively collaborating are particularly encouraged to become members and contact us via the contact form on our website.We encourage students and researchers from other cities and countries to start similar initiatives and get in touch with us, to move together towards a collaborative network of psychedelic research associations.
