Derived from Ancient greek words:
- psychē (ψυχή, "mind")
- dēloun (δηλοῦν, "to make visible, to reveal"),
That when put together translate as:
"to make the mind manifest" or "to reveal the soul"

• Published on Apr 14, 2016
Robin has been conducting pioneering brain imaging studies of psychedelic drugs. Most recently, he has completed the first phase of a clinical trial looking at the potential of psilocybin to treat depression, and his talk looks at how these drugs can be used in treatment.
After completing his PhD at the University of Bristol in 2009, Robin moved to Imperial College London, where he has worked for the last few years on the brain effects of LSD, psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and MDMA, conducting some pioneering brain imaging studies of these drugs. Most recently he has completed the first phase of a clinical trial looking at the potential of psilocybin to treat major depression.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organised by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
