The name of ‘Professor Jan Bastiaans’ (1917-1997) will forever be associated with the treatment of concentration camp survivors with LSD. An approach that came under fierce criticism.

And the clients flocked in: ‘We have to be near Professor Bastiaans because he feels so well the wavelength of the bruised ex-prisoners.’
