To conduct biopsychosocial psychedelic research, interdisciplinary collaborations are encouraged. Such collaborations are healthy for psychedelic research, but more crucially, they might impact science at large. In the current state of academic affairs, biologists, psychologists and social scientists are studying the same human without clearly communicating their findings to each other. Psychedelic research can serve as a glue that integrates interdisciplinary knowledge on mind, body and culture, and so reveal what is unique about humans.
