Alexander Lebedev MD PhD

 

Researcher, Data Scientist, CEO at Katharsis Journeys

 

Trained psychiatrist with PhD from University of Bergen (Norway), I am currently working as a neuroscientist studying complex relationships between global societal dynamics and people's health, wellbeing, beliefs and decision-making. As a data scientist, I also do market research (technical, fundamental, alternative data) leveraging methods of applied statistics and machine learning to identify seasonal trends and fair valuation of a wide variety of assets (incl. stocks, futures and bonds).

​

Besides my research in academia, I am committed to building new models of wellbeing that foster resilience at individual and societal levels. To pursue this goal, together with my colleagues, I co-founded Katharsis Journeys offering transformational retreats in the Netherlands run by a team of doctors with expertise in psychedelic science.

​

In my private counseling practice, I specialise in crisis management, psychology of trading and risk-taking, integration of non-ordinary states of consciousness.

​

In my free time, I enjoy hosting discussions on hot topics in psychiatry and neuroscience, practicing guitar and martial arts.
