Usona Institute Research Unveils New Compounds with Observed Psychedelic-like Activity

MADISON, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Medicinal chemists at Usona Institute have designed a series of new compounds inspired by norpsilocin, a tryptamine natural product found in psychedelic mushrooms. The research, published this week in ACS Chemical Neuroscience, sheds light on the impact of strategic chemical modifications at a specific region of the norpsilocin molecule, providing new lead compounds in pursuit of psychedelics with optimized therapeutic properties. Key findings reported in the pub
