Arizona Biomedical Research Commission (ABRC)
The Arizona Biomedical Research Commission (ABRC) is a state government body within the Arizona Department of Health Services that funds biomedical research, having become the first state agency in the US to direct $5 million toward randomized controlled clinical trials of psilocybin whole mushrooms for conditions including PTSD, depression, and addiction. The ABRC oversees the Arizona Psilocybin Research Advisory Council and has since expanded its psychedelic research portfolio to include an additional $5 million for ibogaine clinical trials.
