Have you been diagnosed with postpartum depression? Are you struggling with a cancer diagnosis? Do you have mild cognitive impairment that you fear could lead to Alzheimer’s disease? Are you a senior citizen who’s curious about adding CBD to your protocol?

If you answered yes to any of those questions — or if you’re a day-tripper willing to share your experiences — scientists with the University of Colorado and around the Denver metro would love to give you some weed and mushrooms. And maybe even pay you for your time.

A cursory search of metro area clinical trials with psychoactive compounds turned up more than a dozen studies involving synthetic psilocybin, CBD, THC, synthetic DMT and a proprietary LSD analog, but it’s not as simple as just signing up online and heading to the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus to get high. It’s serious business, with extensive screening processes and potentially heavy time demands.

But if you have a condition being studied in concert with a psychoactive treatment, then a clinical trial could be an option for you.
