Really looking forward to this year's summit. We’ve built the 2026 program around the questions that keep coming up after treatment ends and I’m glad to finally share it. I hope you'll join us. Happy to answer any questions here.

Before psychedelic research, I built software. Then an MDMA-assisted therapy trial showed me that clinical research has a user-experience problem. For @onemindorg.bsky.social, I wrote about why lived experience should shape research, not just decorate it. onemind.org/lived-experi... #psychedelics

Lived Experience (LX) in healthcare is what User Experience (UX) is in software. The idea is simple...the people who actually use a product or service should help shape its design, priorities, and continuous improvement. Lived experience helps reveal what can’t be seen from the outside.

This has been the most purposeful and meaningful work I've done in my life that's much bigger than myself. Feeling thankful for the impact it's made so far and the people who've supported it.

I've always appreciated Ron's unfiltered communication. His experience is vital for researchers designing trials and for regulators approving protocols. The clinical research field needs better experience design so that science doesn't get put above participant wellbeing.

I’m especially grateful to Joost and the OPEN Foundation for making real space for patient and trial participant voices at ICPR. It is one of the few conferences I’d strongly recommend for both the quality of the presentations and the strength of the connections you can build there.

This is why outcomes ≠ experiences. Healing doesn’t always show up on a checklist, but it still shows up in real life.

Patients and trial participants are the ones who take part in regulated psychedelic-assisted therapy research, yet their perspectives are often missing from the conversations that shape this field. #LivedExperience #ClinicalTrials #ClinicalResearch #PatientAdvocacy #psychedelics

I’m excited to share I’ll be speaking at #PS2025 (June 19 at 2:30 PM on Rick Doblin's stage) in Denver, sharing insights on lived experience in psychedelic care. I'm part of a groundbreaking panel, a first at Psychedelic Science led by MDMA-assisted therapy trial participants.

Scientists are joining. Now we need the journalists to join along with politicians to bring news along with them.
