Patrick Smith
Writer, biologist, and content manager in London, UK
Hi! I'm Patrick, or Pat.
I'm a biologist with a PhD in regenerative medicine and an MSc in neuroscience.
I write about psychedelics for a living – anything from indigenous cultures that use plant medicines, to cutting-edge research on psychedelics as a treatment for depression.
I'm passionate about social justice, and all my writing leans towards egalitarianism and fair access.
I also offer editing services for any kind of written work, and I'm experienced with website content management.
