加州开放最高400万美元申请 资助迷幻药治疗研究改善退伍军人健康
加州州长办公室11月10日在州府 Sacramento 宣布，加利福尼亚州将提供最高400万美元，资助以退伍军人为对象的迷幻药治疗研究。加州精准医学倡议（CIAPM）已开放申请通道，资金将支持加州非营利学术研究机构与退伍军人社区结成伙伴，研究按个人情况匹配的治疗办法，并缩小不同群体之间的健康差距。
加州是全美退伍军人最多的州之一，退伍军人总数近150万人。州长办公室说，已有多项研究显示，某些迷幻药在治疗抑郁症、焦虑症与物质使用障碍方面有效，也有研究显示其对患创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）的退伍军人有明显帮助。美国退伍军人事务部的数据显示，2021年，近期使用过退伍军人医疗系统的退伍军人中，41.9%有精神健康或物质使用障碍的确诊记录。
州长纽森说：「加州既是全美退伍军人人口最多的州之一，也拥有全世界最好的一些研究机构。现在是时候让加州的创新派上用场，推进医学知识与治疗的边界，太多退伍军人已经承受了太久。照顾退伍军人不只是我们的责任，更是尊重。」
加州退伍军人事务厅厅长 Lindsey Sin 说，退伍军人独特的人生经历会影响他们的健康与治疗需求，正视这些经历、让退伍军人直接参与研究过程，有助于加深对迷幻药治疗的理解。加州卫生与公众服务厅厅长 Kim Johnson 表示，这项倡议把一流研究人员与退伍军人社区聚到一起，探索有前景的新治疗路径。CIAPM 首席科学官 Dr. David Reiner 说，用精准医学的办法研究退伍军人的迷幻药治疗，可以得到顾及整个人及其生活经历的、可落地的认识。
这笔研究经费由州长纽森今年早些时候签署的预算法案 AB 113 拨出，这是加州连续第三年以立法推进这类新兴治疗的研究：2025年10月签署的 AB 1103 加快了加州迷幻药研究审批流程，2024年的 AB 2841 则消除了州内研究的一些障碍。本轮申请通道将分若干个为期三到四年的项目团队发放最高400万美元。
申请机构须在2026年12月18日前提交不具约束力、不计分的意向书，初步申请截止日期为2027年2月19日，细则见 CIAPM 网站 ciapm.chhs.ca.gov。州长办公室说，纽森自2019年以来已在全州政府范围投入逾105亿美元支持退伍军人，包括住房、心理健康与危机支持等项目。

California Opens Up to $4 Million in Funding for Psychedelic Treatment Research to Improve Veterans' Health
The Office of California Governor Gavin Newsom announced in Sacramento on November 10 that California is making up to $4 million available to fund research into psychedelic treatments to improve veterans' health. The California Initiative for Precision Medicine (CIAPM) has opened a Request for Applications (RFA) to fund projects run through partnerships between California non-profit academic research institutions and veteran communities, studying personalized treatment approaches and aiming to reduce disparities in health outcomes.
California is home to nearly 1.5 million veterans, one of the largest veteran populations in the country. The governor's office said recent studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of certain psychedelics in treating depression, anxiety disorders and substance use disorders, and that some studies have shown great promise for treating veterans with PTSD. According to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 41.9% of recent veteran users of VA health care had a documented mental health or substance use disorder diagnosis in 2021.
"California is home to one of the largest veteran populations in the country, and to some of the best research institutions in the world. It's time to put California innovation to good use and push the boundaries of medical knowledge and treatments; too many veterans have suffered for too long. Caring for our veterans is more than just our duty; it's about respect. And no one respects our veterans more than California," Governor Newsom said.
Lindsey Sin, Secretary of the California Department of Veterans Affairs, said veterans' unique life experiences can shape their health and treatment needs, and that engaging veterans directly in the research process can deepen understanding of psychedelic treatments. Kim Johnson, Secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency, said the initiative brings leading researchers and veteran communities together to explore promising new approaches to care. Dr. David Reiner, Chief Science Officer of CIAPM, said applying a precision medicine approach ensures insights about the whole person and their lived experience.
Funding for the research was allocated by AB 113, a budget trailer bill Governor Newsom signed earlier this year, marking the third consecutive year the state has advanced legislation supporting research into these emerging treatments: AB 1103, signed in October 2025, expedited California's psychedelic research approval process, and AB 2841, signed in 2024, eliminated certain barriers to research in the state. The RFA will award up to $4 million in total to project teams conducting research with veterans in California over three to four years.
Applicants must submit a non-binding, non-scored Letter of Intent by December 18, 2026, followed by an initial application due February 19, 2027; details are on the CIAPM website at ciapm.chhs.ca.gov. The governor's office said Newsom has invested more than $10.5 billion across state government since 2019 to support veterans, including housing, mental health and crisis support.
