Curious, if Nick Bercel was part of this CIA funded(?) “Hungarian exodus”?

Stephen Szara was apparently denied access to Sandoz in late 1940’s. Sandoz denied any researchers from “Communist” countries access to LSD(Sandoz being in cooperation with request from CIA)which is why he sought an alternate psychoactive drug finding DMT.

Yep, although it was the mid-50s that he got into all this. Szara was then hired by the US government in the exact same period that the CIA was doing a covert op to relocate a bunch of Hungarians to the US. Wild stuff. See more here: https://vincentrado.substack.com/p/dmt-enters-the-lab
