Time limit needs to be extended everyone was rushing

For anyone wondering the last study is called "Psilocybin in long-term meditators: Effects on default mode network functional connectivity and retrospective ratings of qualitative experience" and can be found on sciencedirect.
I agree with the others, speakers should be given more time and it would be interesting to hear some questions/ discussion at the end.

Very interesting... Would it have hurt to give the guy another 15 minutes?

[@sohakes]

This was really interesting, thanks for sharing. Sad he needed to rush, are there follow ups to this?

A book on that subject would be welcome. As a 47 years meditator having done some retreats too, I see the use of substances as an initiation after sometime of regular practice of meditation, as a way of healing in some cases of obstacles that may occur during regular and daily practices of meditation, as a sacrament at the beginning of some meditative retreat, as a last sacrament before death.
