Episode 239: ethnopharmacology (aya 03)

This is the third part of a four part mini-series recorded at the World Ayahuasca Conference in Girona, Spain. In this part we are going to spend time with Dennis McKenna.

Dennis McKenna is an ethnopharmacologist, research pharmacognosist, lecturer and author. He is the brother of well-known psychedelics proponent Terence McKenna and is a founding board member and the director of ethnopharmacology at the Heffter Research Institute, a non-profit organization concerned with the investigation of the potential therapeutic uses of psychedelic medicines.

In this episode, apart from the interview, you’ll also get to hear Dennis talk about the book he was involved with called Ethnopharmacologic Search for Psychoactive Drugs: 50 Years of Research (1967-2017). Check out the book here: www.espd50.com

Episode 67: ayahuasca research report

In this episode we are going to hear a talk by Dennis McKenna. For those unaware Dennis McKenna is the younger brother of Terence McKenna, and unlike his older brother, Dennis decided to take a less public path in life and dedicated his life to the scientific study of psychedelic plants. This talk is lifted from the Psychedelic Salon podcast.
