Emory University researchers have been awarded a $200,000 grant by the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) to conduct a pilot study exploring the potential of MDMA-assisted therapy in combination with Massed Exposure Therapy (MPE) for treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This study, led by renowned PTSD treatment expert Dr. Barbara Rothbaum, aims to investigate the synergistic effects of these two therapies in helping individuals process traumatic memories and reduce distress.
