Microdosing for Depression Appears to Work About as Well as Drinking Coffee
For years, people from CEOs to novelists have taken tiny amounts of psychedelics to support well-being. New research shows that benefits for depression may be attributable to a placebo effect. Typically using psilocybin mushrooms or LSD, the archetypal microdoser sought less melting walls and open-eye kaleidoscopic visuals than boosts in mood and energy, like a gentle spring breeze blowing through the mind. Anecdotal reports pitched microdosing as a kind of psychedelic Swiss Army knife, providing everything from increased focus to a spiked libido and (perhaps most promisingly) lowered reported levels of depression. It was a miracle for many.

Artificial Intelligence Risks: Patient Expectations
At the heart of many innovations in healthcare are patients and finding ways to improve the quality of their care and experience. This is perhaps no more true than in the case of artificial intelligence (AI), which offers vast potential for improving patient outcomes through advances in population health management, risk identification and stratification, diagnosis, and treatment. Yet even with this promise, questions arise about how patients will interact with and react to these new technologies as well as how these advances will change the provider–patient relationship. A look at other technologies reveals some insights and possible concerns. Electronic health records, for example, have been known to produce issues with communication.
