CIRCE is committed to advancing knowledge, ensuring institutional independence, and promoting ethical practices in consciousness research.

Her dual nature – the ability to both harm and heal – reflects the potential of ASC and CMT: profound growth when used responsibly, or harm when misused, committing us to rigorous, ethical and responsible basic research in this field.

In Homer's Odyssey, Circe transforms others through her potions – a metaphorical allusion to our focus on altered states of consciousness (ASC) and consciousness-modifying techniques (CMT).

With initiatives like the Altered States Database (ASDB; asdb.info) and the Altered X Project (AXP; alteredxproject.com), we aim to foster open science and interdisciplinary research on altered states of consciousness (ASC).
