Paul Thielking, chief research officer for Numinus, commented, “By expanding into Phoenix, we can scale our clinical research capabilities, allowing us to offer our current clients faster services and an expanded network of participants, while welcoming a growing list of biotech and psychedelic organizations. The site is fully staffed – drawing on our clinic-base of renowned researchers and practitioners, so we can start operations as soon as possible.”

Ultimately, this allows Numinus to support the growing body of research in the mental health and psychedelic space as we all work towards the goal of more indication-based evidence and safety data.”
