Clearmind Medicine to present research at Psychedelic Medicine – Israel 2024

Clearmind Medicine announces its participation in the upcoming Psychedelic Medicine – Israel 2024 conference. This event will take place in Tel Aviv, Israel from July 28th to 30th, bringing together leading experts and researchers from around the world in the field of psychedelic medicine. Clearmind’s CEO, Adi Zullof-Shani, Ph.D., will present a compelling talk titled “5-Methoxy-2-Aminoindane as a Binge Behavior Regulator.” This presentation is scheduled for Monday, July 29th, in the Research Presentations 1 session, from 9:00 a.m. to 10:40 a.m. IDT. Dr. Zullof-Shani will provide insights into MEAI’s potential to regulate binge behaviors, highlighting its innovative application in treating addiction-related disorders. Additionally, researchers Prof. Joseph Tam and Dr. Saja Baraghithy from the Obesity and Metabolism Laboratory in The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, will present their abstract titled “5-methoxy-2-aminoindane a mild psychedelic agent, attenuates diet-induced obesity.” This presentation is scheduled for Tuesday, July 30th, in the Research Presentations 3 session, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:05 p.m. IDT. Their presentation will delve into the promising results of MEAI in attenuating obesity and its related metabolic complications, showcasing its potential as a therapeutic agent in obesity management. 5-Methoxy-2-Aminoindane as a Binge Behavior Regulator: Dr. Zullof-Shani will discuss the unique properties of MEAI, a psychoactive aminoindane derivative. MEAI has shown promise in reducing the desire to consume alcoholic beverages while inducing a euphoric, alcohol-like slightly tipsy but controlled experience. This presentation will explore MEAI’s potential as a regulator of binge behaviors, providing a novel approach to addiction treatment. 5-methoxy-2-Aminoindane, a Mild Psychedelic Agent, Attenuates Diet-induced Obesity; Dr. Baraghithy will present her research findings on the weight loss effects of MEAI. The study demonstrated that MEAI significantly reduces overweight and adiposity in a diet-induced obesity mouse model. The researchers will share compelling evidence that MEAI reduces fat mass, preserves lean mass, improves glucose metabolism, reduces hepatic steatosis, and increases energy expenditure, making it a promising therapeutic candidate for obesity management.
