Speaker Bio

Dea Siggaard Stenbæk is a licensed clinical psychologist with a PhD in neuroscience. She is Associate Professor in Consciousness Studies at University of Copenhagen and Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet, and conducts research from an integrated experimental approach with the aim of contributing to an interdisciplinary understanding of neurobiological and psychological factors in human health. Her research focuses on psychedelic drugs such as the serotonin 2A receptor (5-HT2AR) agonists psilocybin and LSD. She trains students and clinicians in safe administration of psilocybin and study the impact of music and psychological/psychotherapeutic setting on effects of psilocybin in both healthy volunteers and patient groups. To understand how 5-HT more broadly is involved in neurocognition in the healthy and disordered brain, she has also studied associations of various 5-HT receptors using PET imaging, i.e., 5-HT2AR, 5-HT4R, 5-HTT and 5-HT1BR with personality and neurocognition.
