While Michael Pollan, professor of the practice in Harvard’s Creative Writing program and Lewis K. Chan Arts Lecturer, described the gift as a visionary to take the so-called psychedelic renaissance beyond medicine, by recognizing the importance of the humanities in exploring the impact and potential of these remarkable substances. Furthermore the initiative will give researchers the space to explore and enrich public dialogue around psychedelics, including their potentials, as well as ethical and social implications.

In 2021, the Petrie-Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics at Harvard Law School established its Project on Psychedelics Law and Regulation to examine the ethical, legal, and social implications of psychedelics in research, commerce, and therapeutics. Additionally, the Center for the Study of World Religions at Harvard Divinity School examines psychedelics as they relate to altered states of consciousness, the relationship of mind and matter, and the global history of spirituality and religion.
