Science, Drugs, and the Science of Drugs

Welcome to my work. I'm a teaching-oriented psychological scientist with an interest in all matters related to psychoactive substances. Be it clinical work and research in the field of substance use disorders, fundamental psychopharmacological research, volunteering for harm reduction services, working to change public perception of psychedelic substances, or activism in the field of drug policy.
I am a supporter of open science, harm reduction politics and a proponent of a healthy work-life balance.
