About Albert Hofmann
Albert Hofmann (1906-2008) was a Swiss scientist known for discovering the hallucinogenic properties of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). He synthesized LSD in 1938 while researching ergot alkaloids at Sandoz Laboratories. Hofmann accidentally ingested LSD in 1943, experiencing the first acid trip in history. His subsequent research on LSD and other psychoactive substances contributed to the development of the field of psychedelic therapy and consciousness studies.
