o end the year, I want to share some very cool podcast interviews that students in our lab gave in 2023. These give a neat overview of approaches that our group takes to study altered states. I'm really proud of these efforts and hope you also find them interesting...
Abigayle Peterson (@AbbyPetersonX) investigates the impact of altered states on nature relatedness. Here she discusses challenges in measuring different forms of consciousness alterations and the way that these states can lead to ongoing attitude changes.
