Noonautics in partnership with Eleusis founded a government-licensed research institute and retreat center in the Caribbean, dedicated to conciousness research with a particular focus on extended-state DMT (DMTx) investigations. Our mission integrates rigorous intravenous infusion science with real-time participant control, in a protected, medically supervised tropical environment. By applying target-controlled infusion technology—originally invented by Noonautics director Dr. Andrew Gallimore and now incorporating the Basel “self-titration” paradigm—we enable explorers to navigate and map DMT’s visionary realms continuously, much like NASA/SETI missions chart uncharted frontiers. Simultaneously, we are focused on developing novel mental-health therapeutic protocols using this technology that adapt dynamically to each individual’s needs.
Real-Time Self-Titration Technology
Building on the principle that participants can safely steer their DMT experience, we will employ programmable infusion pumps linked to a simple user interface. At predefined intervals, volunteers indicate “increase,” “decrease,” or “hold” their dose, and clinicians adjust infusion rates accordingly:
- Unlimited Duration. Unlike the 120-minute ceiling of earlier trials, our protocols allow sessions of several hours or more, facilitating prolonged exploratory “missions.”
- Dose Modulation. Drawing from pharmacokinetic models, infusion rates can range flexibly and be altered on demand, yielding a stable plateau of intensity after ~30 minutes.
- Safety Mechanisms. Continuous vital-sign monitoring, acute tolerance buffering, and an immediate “off switch” ensure tolerability throughout extended exposures.
Mystical and Worldview Transformations
Large-scale surveys reveal profound belief shifts following DMT journeys:
- Johns Hopkins Survey: Over two-thirds of self-identified atheists abandoned atheism after a “God” or “ultimate reality” encounter—606 respondents reported using DMT in these experiences .
- Psychedelic User Analysis: Mystical DMT sessions reduced self-reported atheism from 25% to 7%, underscoring DMT’s capacity to induce enduring ontological shifts .
Noonautics will systematically document such encounters, leveraging extended exposure to study the phenomenology of non-human intelligences, interpersonal “shared realities,” and the cognitive mechanisms underlying lasting belief change.
Therapeutic Potential of DMTx
Emerging clinical evidence positions DMT as a rapid-acting intervention for treatment-resistant conditions:
- Phase 2a TRD Trial (Nature Neuropsychopharmacology 2025): Vaporized DMT produced 85.7% response and 57.1% remission at day 7, with benefits persisting up to 3 months after a single session .
- Exploratory IV Study (D’Souza et al., 2022): Single IV boluses demonstrated dose-related safety, tolerability, and acute mood enhancement in healthy and depressed volunteers, supporting infusion-based delivery.
- Broader Psychedelic Literature: Reviews highlight DMT’s promise in neuroplasticity and emotion regulation, similar to psilocybin and ayahuasca interventions (Vollenweider & Preller 2020; Carhart-Harris et al. 2021).
Noonautics’ extended-state approach aims to optimize therapeutic windows, allowing clinicians to deepen or soften the psychedelic state in real time—potentially improving safety, integration, and long-term outcomes beyond single-bolus models.
Research Agenda
- Phenomenological Mapping: Employ EEG, fMRI, and interactive logs during multi-hour DMTx missions to correlate neural signatures with subjective reports of entity contact and spatial navigation.
- Adaptive Psychotherapy Protocols: Develop DMTx-guided therapy frameworks where dose modulation synchronizes with therapeutic phases—intensive exploration, integrative dialogue, and calibration.
- Longitudinal Outcomes: Track mental-health metrics (depression, PTSD, substance use, etc.) over 6–12 months post-DMTx, comparing fixed-dose and self-titration paradigms.
- Technology Innovation: Pilot infusion interfaces with biofeedback loops (e.g., heart-rate variability) to enable semi-autonomous dose adjustments under supervision.
Conclusion
Noonautics stands at the vanguard of a new era in psychedelic science—extending DMT’s brief spark into sustained voyages of consciousness, with participants captains of their own journeys. By marrying NASA/SETI-style exploration with precision mental-health therapeutics, we aspire to unlock realms of insight, foster transformative healing, and chart the uncharted territories of the mind.
