The Sleeping Octopus Assembly on Psychedelics (SOAP) is an intimate conference exploring the role of psychedelics in science, medicine, policy, and culture, taking place at a historic mansion in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, from July 13-15, 2018.

This conference features presentations from key figures in the psychedelic research and policy community, a psychedelic-themed comedy show, live musical performances, and a benefit dinner for the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS). We hope you will join us for this unique opportunity to inspire and unite local communities in a creative setting, the recently-remodeled historic mansion known as the "Sleeping Octopus."
