Resources
Worth your time, organized.
Books, papers, tools, and references I keep coming back to — the ones that actually earned a place here.
Bad Science — Ben Goldacre
A sharp, readable teardown of how bad statistics and bad incentives creep into medicine and the media that covers it.
The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer — Siddhartha Mukherjee
A Pulitzer Prize-winning history of cancer and cancer treatment, and one of the best examples of making dense science genuinely readable.
How to Read a Paper — Trisha Greenhalgh
The classic BMJ series (later a book) on critically appraising medical research. Essential before trusting any single study too much.
Osmosis
Visual explainer videos and study tools for health science students, covering everything from physiology to pharmacology.
Anki
Free, open-source spaced-repetition flashcards. The single tool most pharmacy and medical students swear by for retention.
MedlinePlus
The U.S. National Library of Medicine's free, plain-language health information site — a reliable first stop for any condition or drug.
PubMed
The standard search engine for biomedical literature. If a study exists, it's indexed here first.
Cochrane Library
Systematic reviews that synthesize entire bodies of research into a single, evidence-graded answer.
Epocrates
A point-of-care drug reference and interaction checker used by pharmacists and clinicians every day.
Pharmacy Podcast Network
A long-running network of shows covering community pharmacy, drug development, and pharmacy career paths.
Armando Hasudungan
Hand-drawn illustrated walkthroughs of physiology and pathology that make mechanisms genuinely click.
