Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether certain methods of detecting awareness in vegetative or minimally conscious patients using neuroimaging are sensitive to the effects of psilocybin a psychedelic drug One of these methods includes scanning peoples39 brains while they watch a film When different individuals watch a film their brains become synchronized with each other as they watch the plot unfold Most importantly if a seemingly unconscious patient also shows the same brain-synchronization it means they might actually be conscious and aware
To approach this goal the investigators will be carrying out this trial in healthy volunteers This will help better understand whether psilocybin may be a potential treatment for restoring awareness in these patients The main questions it aims to answer are
Does psilocybin enhance or diminish brain synchrony during a film
Do changes in brain synchrony reflect differences in each individual39s conscious experience
Participants will be asked to
Attend two brain scanning sessions and watch a series of film clips perform a brief mental imagery task and listen to music - once under a placebo and once under psilocybin
Play a series of games that assess their cognition memory reasoning planning etc
Perform a series of visual illusions tasks
