The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens participates in the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Network’s INTEGRATE project, funded by the European Commission under Horizon Europe. The project offers 16 doctoral candidate positions, including one to be supervised by Professor of Pharmacology Christina Dalla at the 2nd Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, School of Medicine, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens.
INTEGRATE tackles the urgent need for better mental health treatments by advancing psychedelic therapy (PT) as a promising new therapy.
INTEGRATE will train a new generation of interdisciplinary experts in PT, addressing four major challenges that currently hamper the implementation of PT in healthcare: unknown mechanisms of action; lack of clinical gold standards; legal/regulatory obstacles; and ethical/societal challenges. The consortium includes 11 academic beneficiaries in nine European countries, and 23 associated partners across Europe and beyond. Through interdisciplinary research and collaboration, the project aims to develop evidence-based protocols, regulatory pathways, and ethical guidelines for safe and effective implementation of PT into healthcare.
