Amanda Wilde is a researcher focused on the intersection of maternal health, psychedelic science, and translational neuroscience. She hold a Masters degree in Biology from Harvard University where she focused on neuroscience and established the novel MINDS postpartum intervention. Trained in biomedical science and pharmacology, she designs and studies interventions to measurably improve outcomes for mothers, babies, and the communities that care for them. Her work contributes to an emerging matrescence‑focused model of health care that centers matrescence and the mother–baby dyad at the heart of women’s wellbeing.
Amanda is a Charlestonian, sunset‑chaser, and sometimes‑poet. She is the mother of a four‑year‑old daughter, with whom she enjoys swimming, dancing, and wandering new cities. Together, they move through the world with curiosity, humor, and as many sushi dates as possible.
