“Insights from Neuroimaging Field Studies: DMT & 5-MeO-DMT”

In this talk, Marek Nikolíč, doctoral researcher at the National Institute of Mental Health under Dr. Tomáš Palenicek, dives into the neural signatures of two fast-acting psychedelics: DMT and 5-MeO-DMT.

🧠 Drawing on EEG data from three real-world contexts - a festival, underground therapy, and guided facilitation - Marek explores how these substances shape consciousness through changes in spectral dynamics, signal complexity, and neural timescales.

“It gave me as a psychiatrist a bigger knowledge on consciousness and on psychological functioning in a broader perspective.”

APT teaches how to apply practical guidelines in psychedelic therapy – derived from the experience in psychedelic studies and thousands of sessions in clinical work – in your day-to-day work in a clinic. Psychedelic therapy is psychotherapy. Participants learn how to apply “disruptive” pharmacological and non-pharmacological tools to induce altered states of consciousness based on a legal, safe, evidence-based and accessible framework.

In this video, Isis Koutrouli, PhD student and researcher at Charles University and the National Institute of Mental Health (NUDZ, Czech Republic), shares her latest findings on the use of psychedelics in addiction treatment.

🐀 Using a co***ne addiction model in rats, her team explores how psilocybin and ibogaine impact extinction and relapse behavior. Both substances significantly reduced drug-seeking during extinction, without affecting movement or emotional state — suggesting an enhancement of extinction learning.

🧠 By combining 20-channel EEG with advanced behavioral protocols, they aim to identify biomarkers that can guide psychedelic-assisted treatments for addiction.

From “well spread and manageable” to „intensive weeks are quite intensive,” – the participants speak about incorporating the APT learning process into their daily lives.
 
The three weeks of on-site training in Berlin is the heart of the program, with self-experience and theoretical classes, also including hands-on guidelines and practice sessions leading to preparation, augmentation (dosing sessions or non-pharmacological methods), and integration sessions.
 
The online classes (lectures, journal clubs, meditation training, and mentoring sessions) in between the intensive weeks for 15 months are a great way to stay in contact and learn from each other through journal clubs, mentoring sessions, international lectures, and meditation training.

“It’s all about how do we incorporate this into actual western medicine in the way we want it.”
Hear participants’ views on the MIND Foundation’s approach to teaching APT. Psychotherapy is at the heart of the program, grounded in 70 years of psychotherapy research while also learning about the pharmacological foundations of psychedelic therapy. This provides the opportunity for medical doctors, psychotherapists, and other mental health professionals to work in a complementary fashion in multi-professional teams. The safe and legal framework in which we provide psychedelic psychotherapy is an ideal learning environment for any mental health professional who wants to work with altered states of consciousness.

“The Consciousness Reboot: Using Extreme Altered States to Reset Mental and Physical Health”

In his talk, Dr. Jack Allocca, a neuroscientist at the University of Melbourne, explores how 5-MeO-DMT and generally cathartic altered states of consciousness may act as a metaphoric “reset button” for both mind and body.
  
🧠 Allocca frames “consciousness” as an operating system — stable yet sometimes stuck in dysfunctional loops. To break free, a radical reboot may be needed. 

5-MeO-DMT is a psychedelic known for its - dose-dependent - tendency to induce states of ego dissolution and “minimal phenomenal experience,” where awareness remains while sense of self, thoughts and sensory content may fade away. 

He introduces the concept of “pivotal physical states” — which he understands as deep, somatic processes of reorganization that may underpin catharsis support long-term change processes. Not all of these change processes appear emotional — some shifts are silent, internal, and deeply physiological.

“Being open to doing the ‘inner work’ is the key to understand how this can work”.

Participants in our Augmented Psychotherapy Training (APT) share how their own self-experience plays a crucial role in learning how to effectively support their patients. First-hand experience gained through preparation, augmentation, and integration sessions is essential for understanding the context-dependence of psychedelic-occasioned psychological change.
