With Bob Wold we sat down to talk in detail about how psychedelics can be a safe and effective treatment for one of the most painful and mysterious health conditions: Cluster Headaches.
ABOUT OUR GUEST
Bob was diagnosed with Cluster Headaches approximately 45 years ago which eventually led him to found Clusterbusters in 2002. Clusterbusters was founded upon the principles of the need for psychedelic research proving its benefits as a safe and effective treatment for cluster headaches, one of the most devastatingly painful conditions known to mankind.
Since the founding of Clusterbusters, the organization has grown to be the largest cluster headache support and advocacy non-profit organization in the U.S and beyond. Bob’s work with Clusterbusters has included research projects carried out at institutions such as Harvard and Yale in the US, McGill University in Canada and Hannover Medical School in Germany.
In addition to his work as Executive Director of Clusterbusters, Bob sits on the Board of several headache disorder patiënt associations and advocacy groups, and the board of the Illinois Psychedelic Society.
