Tim Ferriss Major Depression Research

  This pilot study will enroll up to 6 individuals with
  treatment-resistant depression (at least 2 failed
  attempts at an anti-depressant treatment) who are judged
  by a physician to be appropriate for the study and who
  remain under outpatient supervision for the duration of
  the study.

This requires $80K???

Read The Spirit Molecule about the studies done on DMT in New Mexico during the 90s.

It was a nightmare for the lead researcher to get everything done.

80K actually seems like too little to me.

Also rather low numbers if you want statistically significant results.

Does that seem high? I assume there's quite a few people and expensive processes involved.
