Latham & Watkins has advised Eleusis, a life science company dedicated to unlocking the full therapeutic potential of psychedelics, on the sale of the company to Beckley Psytech, a leading clinical-stage company developing a pipeline of psychedelic compounds into licensed pharmaceutical medicines. The consideration for the transaction comprises entirely of shares in Beckley Psytech.
