Rewiring the Brain? Ketamine, Psychedelics & Mental Health with Dr. Lisa Ndejuru

Can drugs like ketamine, LSD, and marijuana really “rewire” the brain?
In this episode of The Long Form Podcast, Dr. Lisa Ndejuru, clinician at the King Faisal Hospital Ketamine Treatment & Research Centre in Kigali, breaks down the science and controversy surrounding psychedelic-assisted therapy, mental health treatment in Africa, and the global rise of ketamine clinics. We discuss Elon Musk’s public use of ketamine, Silicon Valley’s investment in psychedelics, African traditional plant medicine, marijuana culture among young Africans, and whether modern pharmaceuticals are healing trauma — or simply reshaping perception.
