Join Alaina as she jumps into her favorite topic - how drugs work! She's going to discuss the basics of biology and how the structural and functional characteristics of compounds can determine how psychedelics work. Harrison Elder, a PhD student and behavioral pharmacologist at Virginia Commonwealth  University joins Alaina to talk about the difference between tryptamines and ergolines, and how we can measure the function of these different psychedelics. Thanks for listening and as always, subscribe and let us know what you think!
