There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that psychedelics can be used safely and effectively to treat mental disorders, including depression, PTSD, and substance use disorders.
During this one-day symposium, leading psychiatrists, psychotherapists, neuroscientists, and psychopharmacologists in the field of psychedelic-assisted therapies will share the latest scientific developments and insights into the therapeutic use of psychedelics, and discuss the future of treatment and research with MDMA, psilocybin, LSD and other compounds.
This state-of-the-art symposium will showcase the latest clinical evidence on psychedelics in the treatment of mental disorders and will facilitate in-depth interaction and discussion.

Tickets
This is a separate symposium aimed to inform and educate healthcare professionals in the Netherlands. Attendees of ICPR 2020 don’t need to worry, as all speakers will also present during the three days of ICPR 2020.
Due to recent covid-related changes, we have decided to host the conference online and have reduced ticket prices accordingly. Registration fees are now €195.
For a surplus of €100, attendees will also gain access to all 3 conference days of the Interdisciplinary Conference on Psychedelic Research. Discounted tickets are available for AIOs, resident psychiatrists in GZ-psychologists in training, at €95.
CONFIRMED ISPPP SPEAKERS
Some of the questions that will be discussed at ISPPP
- What skills, competencies and knowledge do therapists need and how do we train them?
- What do we know about the neuro-biological and psychological working mechanisms of these substances?
- What is the role of treatment context, music, and integration sessions in establishing (long-term) clinical outcomes?
- Can psychedelic-assisted treatments be integrated into conventional mental health care infrastructures?
- Can we apply conventional psycho-therapeutic methods to psychedelic-assisted therapies or are novel methods needed?
