"#Psilocybin and #psilocin , the #psychoactive #compounds found in nearly all species of #Psilocybe , have shown promise as a treatment for conditions including #PTSD , #depression , and for easing end-of-life care.
To utilize psilocybin as a #therapeutic , #scientists need an extensive #roadmap of the compound's underlying #genetics and #evolution , #information that doesn't exist. Our #limited #knowledge comes from #research on just a fraction of the ~165 known species of Psilocybe. Most psilocybin-producing #mushrooms haven't been studied since they were first #discovered —until now."
