A philosopher-turned-scientist, Caspar Montgomery works on the intersection between psychedelics, cognitive science and mental health. Studying at the Berlin School of Mind & Brain, he conducts neuropsychological research at the Charité Hospital which looks at changes to the minimal self in schizophrenia, and naturalistic EEG research in Peru with Onaya Science, an independent non-profit research organisation focused on ayahuasca and other Amazonian plant medicines. In his spare time, Caspar performs voluntary work with Heroic Hearts UK (a non-profit organisation connecting military veterans with PTSD to psychedelic therapies), and PsyCare UK (a charity providing welfare, psychedelic harm reduction and psychological first aid at music festivals).
