Hi
You may recall that a few months back, I interviewed
Dr. David Cox (
@davidjcox_). In our discussion, we spent a fair amount of time discussing the literature on the use of psychedelics for the treatment of a variety of behavioral and mental health
challenges.
This week, I get to extend this conversation with Dr. Matthew Johnson (
@Drug_Researcher). Matt Johnson is a
Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at John Hopkins University, and he's been a leading figure in this area of research for
years. So much so that his expert views have been sought out by media outlets such as
(takes deep breath):
The New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, Globe and Mail, Daily Mail, USA Today, Chicago Tribune, San Francisco Chronicle, Denver Post, Baltimore Sun, CNN, CBS News, NBC News, The Atlantic, Newsweek, Vanity Fair, Marie Claire, Vogue, Whole Living, The Washingtonian, Scientific American, Nature, Vice,
Insider, Inverse, Healthline, Psychology Today
(pause to inhale...)
60 Minutes, CNN’s Wolf Blitzer Situation Room, Fox Business News’ Kennedy, the Dr. Oz Show, PBS’ Retro Report, Labyrint (television show in the Netherlands), Spectrum News NY1, the BBC World Service, NPR’s Morning Edition, NPR’s Kojo Nnamdi Show, New Zealand Radio, and Newstalk Radio Ireland... just to name a few.
Matt has also been featured in a special episode of
The Tim Ferriss Show on this very topic. As such, I'm a little more than humbled to chat with him on Behavioral Observations!
I'd also love to show Matt what a smart and engaged audience I have. So if you have any questions about drugs and behavior, or the use of recreational drugs in the treatment of things like smoking cessation, mental health challenges, etc... this is an opportunity to present your question to one of the most knowledgable people in the world on this topic!
Lastly, if you are going to submit a question, don't wait around to do so, as I'll be speaking with him later this week!
Thanks!
Matt
