Join us for a stimulating discussion about mental health taking place within the Art Neuro exhibition. We have four experts joining us to talk about their views and answer questions from the audience.

Dr Robin Carhart-Harris is a scientific researcher at Imperial working on how psychedelic drugs like MDMA (ecstasy), psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and LSD effect the brain, as well as the potential therapeutic applications of these drugs, e.g. to treat depression.

Siobhan Jones is studying clinical psychology and is specifically looking at why adolescents decide to drop out of mental health services and fail to complete a course of treatment.

We also have psychiatrist Dr Benjamin Robinson and art therapist Kate Rothwell joining us.
