Science Programme
The intention of the Beckley Foundation Science Programme is to advance our understanding of human brain function and the nature of consciousness. It has resulted in the formation of various collaborative research projects with leading scientists in the fields of neurophysiology, biochemistry, psychiatry and psychology, at renowned scientific institutions in Great Britain and abroad.
A summary of some of the current studies is given below:
