Overview

D. de Wied was affiliated with Utrecht University in the Netherlands. Their research spanned several interconnected fields within the broader domain of psychological and neuroscientific studies, particularly focusing on the effects and mechanisms of psychedelics and related biochemical processes.

Their published work included a recent paper titled Prediction of hallucinogen persisting perception disorder and thought disturbance symptoms following psychedelic use, published in 2025 in PNAS Nexus. This paper addressed the prediction of specific symptoms following psychedelic substance use, contributing to the understanding of hallucinogen-related disorders.

D. de Wied's collaboration network included frequent co-authors such as Katie Zhou, Robin Carhart-Harris, and Hannes Kettner. These collaborations reflect interdisciplinary connections in research exploring psychedelics, neurobiology, and clinical outcomes.

The main fields of study for this scientist included:

  • Psychology
  • Neuroscience
  • Nursing

Within these fields, their subfields of study featured:

  • Clinical Psychology
  • Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience
  • Nutrition and Dietetics

The topics covered by their work involved multiple key areas related to brain function and behavior modulation:

  • Psychedelics and Drug Studies
  • Neurotransmitter Receptor Influence on Behavior
  • Biochemical Analysis and Sensing Techniques
