Excellent Achievements for Clearmind’s Proprietary MEAI that was Included in U.S. Congress’ Emerging Therapies Bill to Expand Veteran Access to Innovative Treatments

 

This is the first time MEAI, Clearmind’s next-generation, non-hallucinogenic neuroplastogen, has been named in U.S. federal legislation

 

Vancouver, Canada, Feb. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearmind Medicine Inc. (Nasdaq: CMND), (FSE: CWY0) (“Clearmind” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biotech company focused on the discovery and development of novel neuroplastogen-derived therapeutics to solve major under-treated health problems, today welcomes the inclusion of its proprietary compound, MEAI (5-methoxy-2-aminoindane,or5-MeO-AI ), in newly introduced bipartisan legislation in the U.S. Congress.

 

The Expanding Veterans’ Access to Emerging Treatments Act of 2026 (H.R. 7091) directs the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to establish an investigational research and extended access treatment program for innovative and emerging therapies that address unmet medical needs in veterans.

 

Covered therapies explicitly include psilocybin, MDMA, MEAI (5-MeO-AI), 5-MeO-DMT, ibogaine, ketamine, and others as designated by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs. This marks the first time MEAI, Clearmind’s proprietary, next-generation, non-hallucinogenic neuroplastogen, has been named in U.S. federal legislation. If passed, H.R. 7091 would transform clinical treatment across a variety of covered conditions, including Alcohol Use Disorder, by developing VA-supported clinical trials and extended access protocols using these emerging treatments.

 

“We so greatly appreciate Congress introducing H.R. 7091, which offers a transformational opportunity for veterans suffering from alcoholism, post-traumatic stress disorder and other conditions to access emerging, promising therapies. We also appreciate the recognition of MEAI, a non-hallucinogenic neuroplastogen with the transformative potential to improve the health of veterans,” said Clearmind Medicine CEO Dr. Adi Zuloff-Shani, PhD. “We believe, this bipartisan milestone in Washington, D.C., underscores growing support for innovative, evidence-based approaches to conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder, which remains a significant challenge for many veterans.”

 

“This bill, with the inclusion of MEAI and other innovative therapies, forges a new vocabulary for evidence-based psychedelic healing,” said Melissa Lavasani, Founder and CEO of the Washington, D.C, non-profit Psychedelic Medicine Coalition.
