David Jay Brown at a panel discussion in Santa Cruz, CA August, 2009

He holds a master’s degree in psychobiology from New York University, and a B.A. in psychology from the University of Southern California.[citation needed] Brown is the author of four interview collections with controversial scientists and artists,[1][2][3][4] two science fiction novels,[5][6] and a health science book.[7] Brown's scientific research has been in the areas of behavioral neuroscience,[8][9] psychic phenomena,[10][11] unusual animal behavior prior to earthquakes,[12] and medical marijuana[13] He has written essays, magazine articles, and scientific papers, and has made contributions to numerous books.

Brown published his first book, a novel entitled Brainchild, in 1988, and published two collections of interviews in 1993 and 1995. From 1996-1999 Brown researched the unexplained powers of animals with British biologist Rupert Sheldrake. Three scientific papers based on this work were summarized in Dr. Sheldrake's books Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home[14] and The Sense of Being Stared At.[15] He has published several books since.

Brown has also written for magazines and scientific journals, including Scientific American Mind,[16]Nature Medicine,[17] Wired,[18] Tricycle,[19] The Sun, Mondo 2000, High Times,[20][21][22] Fate, Neuroscience Abstracts, the Journal of Parapsychology, Hustler,[23] the International Synergy Journal, the Journal of Psychical Research, and Magical Blend. He is sometimes Guest Editor of the MAPS Bulletin--he has done a series of special theme Bulletins for MAPS (Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies)--and is part of the Erowid Expert Network. He has also written dozens of health science articles for various nutritional supplement company publications—including Smart Publications, Health Freedom Nutrition, Life Enhancement, and International Anti-Aging Systems—and is the author of two health science books.[24][25]

Brown has appeared on the PBS show "Nature" (Extraordinary Cats), the HBO show "Real Sex", the BBC and the Discovery Channel's "Animal X", the Fox show "A Current Affair", and ViaCom's The Montel Williams Show.[26]
