Being high on weed, energetic and unstoppable on cocaine, spiritual on LSD, being all loving and in touch with the world on MDMA, feeling the sun melting on the tip of your tongue on heroin and of course there is much more. What are the up and down sides of drugs and how does the brain integrate these processes into the actual experience?

The goal of this science café is to provide a realistic view on all kinds of drugs by discussing positive and negative effects and by uncovering usual misconceptions by consulting our experts. Maybe drugs are not that bad after all?

We will encourage people from the audience to engage in a lively discussion with our experts so that no question will be left unanswered.

More speakers will be announced on this website.

In cooperation with Nena Pohl and Bob Vogel, master students psychology.
