Field Trip Health
Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy company
Field Trip Health was a Canadian Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy company, founded in April 2019. In May 2022, the company split into two separate, independent entities: Field Trip Health and Wellness and Reunion Neuroscience.
Field Trip Health and Wellness is now defunct with its assets acquired by two different companies, while Reunion Neuroscience is still active as of 2024, continuing the development of the psychedelic compound FT-104.
History
Field Trip Health was founded in April 2019 by Ronan Levy, Joseph del Moral, Hannan Fleiman, Dr. Ryan Yermus and Mujeeb Jafferi. All of the cofounders, except for Jafferi, previously worked together in the Canadian cannabis industry.
The company was developing the psychedelic molecule, FT-104. The compound targeted the 5-HT2A receptor in the brain, the same receptor that psilocybin targets, and intended to produce a hallucinogenic effect that lasted roughly two hours, or approximately half the time a psychedelic experience with magic mushrooms lasts.
The company went public on the Canadian Securities Exchange in October 2020, completing a reverse takeover of the Newton Energy Corporation, an oil and gas company. It would later be listed on the Nasdaq in July 2021.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Field Trip Health” as ketamine-assisted psychotherapy company. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the history & society register because the source frames it as ketamine-assisted psychotherapy company. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Contemporary correspondence, administrative files and participant testimony can test how later narratives organized the event or institution. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q132745911. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2019, 2022, 2024 and 2020.
Later summaries often reconcile disputed chronology or motive more neatly than the contemporary record permits. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
