Welcome to the UCL Centre for Consciousness Research (UCCR)

The UCCR is the first cross-disciplinary centre dedicated to advance the science of consciousness with a focus on psychedelics and meditation. It does so by exploring neurobiological and experiential mechanisms of consciousness and bridging these with computational approaches.

Our findings provide key insights into the impact of psychedelics and meditation on consciousness, as well as developing pathways for their use in boosting cognition, creativity, insight, and human development more broadly.
