Schulman Research Award

The Schulman Research Award is a Canadian research award that has provided funding for clinical anesthesia and psychiatry research; in the psychedelic-adjacent field, it supported a randomized study at the University of Saskatchewan comparing ketamine-based versus propofol-based anesthesia for electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in patients with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder, which found that ketamine-based anesthesia resulted in superior treatment outcomes on the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale.
