The pharmacology
of altered states,
traced to its sources.

Psychedelia holds 19,644C bioactivity measurements for 545P psychoactive compounds, across 970C assay targets. Every one of them is traceable to the ChEMBL assay it came from.

Radius is pX = −log₁₀(value in M), that is 9 − log₁₀(value in nM), computed from the normalized measurement. Hatched wedges are equilibrium binding constants (Ki, Kd); dashed outlines are functional readouts (IC₅₀, EC₅₀, AC₅₀, potency), which answer a different question and are not pooled with them. Rings mark whole pX units from 5 to 10, labeled every second ring in the gutter at the top. Where a target carries several measurements, the strongest is drawn.
