Best resources for going deeper — books, podcasts, research papers

Books: How to Change Your Mind (Pollan) is the best general introduction. The Psychedelic Explorer's Guide (Fadiman) for practical harm reduction and microdosing research. Stealing Fire (Kotler & Wheal) for the performance/consciousness angle. For the science: The Psychedelic Renaissance (Nutt) is excellent. For history and culture: Plants of the Gods (Schultes & Hofmann) is foundational.

Podcasts: Tim Ferriss has done several long-form interviews with Pollan, Carhart-Harris, and MAPS researchers that remain some of the best introductions. Huberman Lab has a good episode on the neuroscience. For clinical content, the Psychedelic Medicine Podcast (Dr. Lynn Marie Morski) is the most professionally oriented.

For primary research: PubMed searches for 'psilocybin clinical trial' will surface the major papers. Key authors to follow: Robin Carhart-Harris (UCSF), Matthew Johnson (Johns Hopkins), Roland Griffiths (Johns Hopkins — the seminal mystical experience papers), Michael Pollan (popularisation). The MAPS website has a good library of published research across substances.
