Study finds LSD speeds up brain rhythms and alters cortical complexity
Original: LSD reconfigures cortical dynamics through faster brain rhythms and increased fractal dimension
A new study published in Nature reports that LSD reconfigures cortical dynamics in the brain, driving faster brain rhythms and increasing the brain's fractal dimension, a measure of signal complexity. The findings offer insight into how psychedelics alter neural activity and may inform research on their therapeutic potential.
Why now: Fresh publication of psychedelic brain research in a top journal draws broad scientific and public interest.
