From Our Founders
"I founded the Academy of Intrinsic Studies to bridge science, spirituality, and consciousness. Inspired by my transformative education in Oregon's pioneering psilocybin programs, AIS is a place where rigorous research and holistic wisdom unite, preparing facilitators deeply connected to both ethical standards and the spiritual roots of psilocybin healing."
Dave Naftalin
CEO, Co-Founder
"Coming from a higher education background, I've always believed learning should nurture not only the intellect but also emotional, social, and spiritual growth. With AIS, we developed a curriculum that integrates rigorous academics with mindfulness, ethics, and cultural awareness. Our goal is to equip facilitators to support profound healing experiences, honoring the complexity of mind, body, and spirit."
Kathleen Bruce
