What Was Project MKUltra? The CIA's Secret Mind Control Program

Project MKUltra was a covert research program launched by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in 1953. Conducted during the Cold War, the project explored mind control, behavior modification, interrogation techniques, and the effects of psychoactive substances.
