TOPIC: Psilocybin For Longevity: From Discovery To Clinical Trials
This webinar will continue to examine psilocybin research through a geroscience and systems biology lens, focusing on what psychedelic-induced distress can reveal about fundamental ageing processes across biological systems and how and why psilocybin may improve human life and health span.
Key Learning Outcomes:
- Learn about new research discoveries that suggest psilocybin impacts ageing
- Learn about the previously unexplored systemic impacts of psilocybin on organ health
- Learn about the potential of psilocybin for delaying the onset of age-associated diseases
- Hear about the first clinical trial to evaluate the impacts of psilocybin on healthy ageing

The Presenters
Dr Louise Hecker (USA)
PhD
Clinical Associate Professor: Medicine - Cardiovascular Research, Baylor College of Medicine
Louise Hecker, PhD is an Associate Professor at Baylor College of Medicine and the Founder and Chief Scientific Officer at Fibronox with over 15 years of experience in regenerative biology, fibrosis research, and age-related disease therapeutics. She is a world-leading expert on Nox4 and Nrf2, having made numerous seminal discoveries in understanding how oxidative stress contributes to tissue fibrosis and aging.
Her groundbreaking research has revolutionized the understanding of fibrotic diseases and recently expanded into psychedelic medicine, where her team discovered that psilocybin extends cellular lifespan by up to 57% and improves survival in aged mice. As an academic entrepreneur, she has founded five companies and secured approximately $15 million in research funding as Principal Investigator while holding around 20 patent applications.
Dr Macsue Jacques
PhD
Postdoctoral Researcher at Monash University
Dr Macsue Jacques is a prominent postdoctoral researcher and data scientist specializing in aging, epigenetics, and longevity science. Based at the Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI) at Monash University, she focuses on utilizing multi-omics approaches and advanced computational tools to understand the mechanisms of aging.
