Over the past decade, interest in psychedelics—including psilocybin, LSD, and MDMA—as treatments for psychiatric disorders has grown exponentially among scientists, mental health professionals, the media, and the public.

From groundbreaking scientific research to compassionate, patient-centered clinical care, the Foundation is committed to developing innovative solutions for complex challenges, all with the goal of improving lives and inspiring hope.

Founded in the beginning of the 21st century, it carries forward the visionary legacy of António Champalimaud, advancing science and healthcare for the greater good of humanity.

Join us in discovering how, together, we are shaping a brighter future.

Science You Can Believe In

On 14 November, CEO Team Coordinator Catarina Ramos joined a group of experts at ISCTE – Instituto Universitário de Lisboa for a roundtable discussion about trust in science. This marked the culmination of the European Commission-funded POIESIS project, an international research consortium spanning seven countries.

This year, we thought of doing something a bit different that would:

- bring our community together 
- unleash our creativity (we may not be artists but scientists and health professionals can be super creative!)
- result in beautiful and unique artistic images that could be shared with you!

The aim of this 2-days meeting, is to bring together experts working on innovative AI methodologies, for example: Physics-Inspired Machine Learning, New Statistical Approaches, Quantum Machine Learning, Bayesian Methods, Neurosymbolic Methods, Symbolic AI, Automated Theorem Proving, Probabilistic Programming Languages, Algebraic Machine Learning, Category Theory applied to AI.

Date: 3-4 February, 2025
