The public's faith in the safety and efficacy of prescription drugs and vaccines has been shaken as never before. There's skepticism about the role the big pharma plays in rolling out new medications, yet there are amazing breakthroughs in treating once fatal diseases. And then there's the price for critical treatments that can be beyond the reach for many. How did we get here and how can we fix it? We are joined by Dr Jerry Avorn, professor of medicine at Harvard University Medical School and author of the new book, “Rethinking Medications: Truth, Power and the Drugs you Take.”

PsyWar is when a government coordinates and directs deployment of propaganda, censorship, and psychological operations (psyops) tools in campaigns designed to manipulate public opinion. The authors address critical topics including: • Propaganda and Behavioral Control • Psychological Bioterrorism • Deep State Censorship • Surveillance Capitalism • Administrative State Objectives • Fifth-Generation Warfare • PsyWar Tactics • Techno-Totalitarianism • The New World Order and Global Control Free speech is the most pragmatic tool we have for ascertaining truth. Only by examining all sides of an issue can the truth be chiseled out like a statue out of marble. We must defend all speech—whether untrue, hateful, or intolerable, as that is the only way to protect our right to understand the world. As soon as free speech is restricted, that restriction will be used to sway public opinion. Now is a time when America needs hope. But more than hope, we need to restore our Constitution and Bill of Rights as the foundational documents of our Republic. These documents support and protect our personal sovereignty and are at the core of our fundamental rights as Americans. We must work to make this country great again by restoring our commitment to these foundational principles and ethics. PLUG BOOK: PsyWar: Enforcing the New World Order BIO: Robert W.

Doctors say about 15 percent of people who get Covid-19 still have symptoms more than three months later. They call the phenomenon "long Covid" but, until now, there really hasn't been a clinical definition of what that means. Last week, researchers at Harvard University Medical School published a paper that outlines what qualifies as long Covid and what doesn't. Tanayott Thaweethai is the lead author of that paper, and he spoke with the CBC's Leigh Anne Power.

It's clear there are diversity issues in science, both in terms of who does or doesn't receive research grants, as well as who is or isn't represented at the highest levels of scientific research. When Caleb Weinreb and Daphne Sun began their PhD program at Harvard University Medical School in systems biology, they took this on as an issue. They learned from others in their department, and they eventually created a course on the topic for incoming first year PhD students. As they worked on improving their course over the years, they saw that in science there was a focus on narrowing racial gaps by correcting for implicit bias. For example, there had been a well-known study in which resumes with stereotypically African-American names weren't considered as seriously as those with stereotypically white names. But the two PhD students realized that efforts to overcome such implicit bias weren't moving the needle. They recently published a perspective paper in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology called “To dismantle structural racism in science, scientists need to learn how it works.” Caleb Weinreb is now a post-doc in the neuroscience department at Harvard Medical School.Read the full paper here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41386-023-01534-2 Hosted on Acast.

Episode Summary In this episode, Chantal and Brenda talk about how to convert our experiences into an opportunity to evolve as a human being, and not letting trauma define who we are. Brenda encourages people to have a creative response to trauma by relating skillfully not only with your body, but also with your fear to grow from spaces, people and situations that do not fit you anymore. She talks about body awareness, how to relate skillfully with fear, and how to acknowledge your feelings in order to progressively unburden yourself from past trauma and be able to focus on your present, and reclaim who you have the potential to be.

El 23 de junio de 2021, la Fundación Rafael del Pino organizó la conferencia “Resetea tu mente. Descubre de lo que eres capaz”, impartida por el Dr. Mario Alonso Puig, fellow en cirugía por Harvard University Medical School, con motivo de la publicación de su libro del mismo título. Según Mario Alonso Puig, el cerebro humano tiene cien mil millones de neuronas. No hay ningún ordenador que pueda sustituir por completo al cerebro humano. Un ordenador puede hacer mejor algunas funciones, pero no puede sustituir al ser humano. No obstante, comprender cómo funcionan los ordenadores puede ayudarnos a entender mejor nuestras funciones cerebrales. Vamos a explorar una forma de reiniciar procesos mentales que no están funcionando bien para que traigan más salud, prosperidad y felicidad a nuestra vida. El drama del ser humano es que somos leones que nos miramos en el espejo y nos vemos como sencillos gatitos. Por eso tenemos tanto miedo. Una de las cosas que quería que se produjeran con la lectura del libro fue volver a conocer quienes somos en realidad para que desaparezca el nivel de miedo con el que vivimos, que nos genera ansiedad, tensión, que es fuente de enfermedad. Esto es un descubrimiento, no se puede llegar a través del intelecto sino de otro camino. El intelecto cuenta, pero no es lo único que cuenta. Nuestro intelecto nos tiene que dar permiso, lo que exploremos no tiene que repugnar a la razón, tiene que tener sentido, pero no es lo único. Santiago Ramón y Cajal fue el único español que ganó un Premio Nóbel de Medicina para España. Severo Ochoa lo hizo para Estados Unidos. Ramón y Cajal fue un hombre lleno de sabiduría que dijo que todo ser humano, si se lo propone, puede ser escultor de su propio cerebro. Esto es una noticia maravillosa porque hay personas que creen que nunca cambiarán a pesar de que su forma de ser no les gusta. Tenemos que avanzar un poco más e ir a dos científicos, el profesor Roger Sperry y Mike Gazzaniga. Sperry ganó el Nobel de Medicina en 1981. Todos tenemos dos hemisferios cerebrales. Cada uno de ellos hace aproximadamente lo mismo, por ejemplo, mover una mano o un pie. Ahora bien, lo que Sperry, Gazzaniga y el conjunto del equipo descubrieron en el Caltec (Pasadena, California) fue que asentada en cada hemisferio hay una mente diferente. No hay solo una mente que se da cuenta de lo que se da cuenta, sino otra que se da cuenta de que hay cosas que pasan sin que uno sea consciente de ella. La primera pertenece al hemisferio izquierdo y la segunda al derecho. El hemisferio izquierdo no puede explicar racionalmente porqué una persona no le gusta, pero el derecho lo entiende. Sperry, Gazzaniga y el resto del equipo demostraron que, con mucha frecuencia, estas dos mentes están enfrentadas. Esto es importante para entender de qué manera boicoteamos nuestro verdadero potencial por este conflicto interno. Hay una parte de nuestro cerebro que ven una realidad y otra parte que está viendo otra realidad. Como las dos mentes están enfrentadas, lejos de ver eso como una oportunidad se convierte en una u otra, se escinde y solo se ve una. Uno de los dos hemisferios, el izquierdo, por el entrenamiento cultural, se ha convertido en tan poderoso que tiene al otro tapado. No le permite que lo que está viendo pueda aprovecharse porque uno de los hemisferios no quiere que eso aflore. En el cerebro hay cuatro sistemas operativos. Uno, el más profundo, el hipotálamo tiene originalmente unos 350 millones de años. El segundo es el sistema límbico, que es el sistema emocional. El mundo racional, está conectado al hemisferio izquierdo, el tercer sistema. Al hemisferio izquierdo le encanta compartimentar, dividir, medir. Esto no tiene anda que ver con el cuarto, que está conectado con el hemisferio derecho, al que le importa el mundo espiritual, lo que va más allá de la apariencia, de las formas. El hemisferio derecho tiene capacidades espectaculares, pero el hemisferio izquierdo se ha convertido en el dominante. El hemisferio izquierdo es muy prepotente. Lo que no ve, no existe; si algo no se puede medir, si no tiene materia, no es real. También es muy ignorante de lo que no conoce. No sabe que no sabe. El hemisferio derecho está mucho más abierto a explorar, a descubrir, a entender la lógica de lo que se sale de lo razonable. Es la sabiduría del corazón que dice que el pasado no tiene por qué determinar el futuro. El hemisferio izquierdo ha sido nuestro gran avance evolutivo. Su desarrollo se inició hace cien mil años y concluyó hace cuarenta mil. Es el que nos permite conversar, explicar, desarrollar estrategias. Esa capacidad de comunicar, describir, organizar, desarrollar estrategias fue clave para que el hombre pudiera sobrevivir. Le permitió utilizar herramientas, tener el desarrollo científico y tecnológico. El problema reside que, al olvidarse del otro hemisferio, se desconectó de los aspectos profundos de la naturaleza. Al dividir dejó de ver las cosas en su conjunto, se desligó de la naturaleza. Esta es su tendencia por el condicionamiento cultural que va reforzando la división. Del hemisferio izquierdo surge algo que puede ser muy limitante: el habla egocéntrica. Este hemisferio es el último en desarrollarse. Lo hace después del hipotálamo, el sistema límbico y el hemisferio derecho. Cuando se desarrolla, empieza a interpretar las cosas, que vive como reales. Las interpretaciones que hace el hemisferio izquierdo se viven como la única interpretación de algo. El habla egocéntrica nos hace cautivos de nuestra propia narrativa para explicar la realidad, porque nos hace creer en ella, aunque no sea verdad, aunque no tenga en cuenta las cosas que pertenecen al mundo inconsciente. El hemisferio izquierdo tiene que confabular para encontrar una explicación razonable, para explicar lo que no tiene sentido para él. No explora, solo enjuicia y dogmatiza en base a lo que ve. En el hemisferio derecho del cerebro están nuestros traumas infantiles. ¿Quién no ha experimentado una herida emocional cuando era pequeño, aunque fuera intencionada? Todo eso va quedando en el hemisferio derecho, sobre todo en la infancia y la niñez. Ese hemisferio está en contacto permanente con el cuerpo, lo que hace que la persona no se encuentre bien, se bloquee, a causa de esos traumas de infancia. El hemisferio izquierdo tiene que dar una explicación a eso, pero como no tiene contacto con el hemisferio derecho, se inventa una historia y se la cree. Tiene que inventar una historia del tipo esto es lo que me pasa porque no soy lo suficientemente inteligente, se la cree y empieza a actuar en base no a como son las cosas, sino a cómo cree que son. Esta tendencia obsesiva del hemisferio izquierdo ha de dejar paso a un sentimiento de humildad, de explorar, para que el hemisferio derecho pueda decir lo que le pasa, pero como no se le escucha, el izquierdo inventa una historia y la acarrea sin saber la razón. El hemisferio izquierdo no quiere saber del derecho porque intuye que ahí hay algo que prefiere no conocer. Pero no se da cuenta de la cantidad de recursos que está perdiendo por no conectar con el derecho. La idea de que no se puede cambiar es solo del hemisferio izquierdo, no del derecho. Si se abre a entender al derecho, empieza a ver soluciones que no se pueden entender desde la razón ordinaria. El hemisferio izquierdo va al detalle, que es importante, pero también hay que ver el conjunto, que es lo que nos falta, el gran angular que proporciona el hemisferio derecho. El hemisferio derecho no ve división, solo ve unidad. Nos ayuda a transcender la línea del tiempo y nos permite conectar con un presente eterno. El hemisferio izquierdo está obsesionado con la muerte y el derecho con la vida. El izquierdo está obsesionado con lo material y el derecho con el amor, con el dar. Cuando los niños son muy pequeños, los dos hemisferios son muy amigos. El izquierdo entiende muy bien lo que es capaz de hacer, pero también sabe que el derecho tiene capacidades de las que él carece. El resultado es que los niños pequeños son más felices, están explorando, aprendiendo con mucha rapidez. La infancia y la niñez son épocas importantísimas en la vida del ser humano. Los seres humanos necesitamos dos cosas. La primera es sentirnos profundamente amados con amor incondicional, es decir, te quiero por quien eres no por como eres. El niño anhela ese amor incondicional porque en algún momento es consciente de lo que ese amor significa. Ha habido niños que han sufrido mucho porque estaban en familias disfuncionales que han llegado a creer que si se les trataba mal es porque se lo merecían. Si se sienten bien, esa sensación le incomoda porque cree que no se la merece. Esto está en el hemisferio izquierdo. Si pudiera entender estas conductas, ese niño se sanaría porque el hemisferio derecho está deseando encontrarse con su amigo de la infancia. El lado oscuro del hemisferio izquierdo es su prepotencia y su ignorancia; el luminoso es la capacidad de pensar, escribir, construir, describir. El del derecho es nuestros traumas, nuestras heridas. La segunda cosa que necesita el niño es sentirse autosuficiente. Hay que ayudarle a que tenga la sensación de que, pese a que es pequeño, puede hacer cosas. Su lado luminoso es la mirada con anchura, con profundidad, la que ve la unidad en medio de la división. Por eso el hemisferio está obsesionado con la muerte y el derecho con la vida. Si estamos en el campo de los niveles de la consciencia lo que tenemos que hacer es unificar la conciencia, llevar luz al hemisferio izquierdo para que entienda que hay un mundo más allá de la materia, de lo medible, de lo controlable. El hemisferio derecho, por su parte, tiene traumas en su interior, sabe que el otro hemisferio no le presta atención, pero tiene interés por conocerle, no por rivalizar. No va a rechazar esos traumas porque sabe que, si los abraza, la persona va a sanar y todo va a pasar a otro nivel. Tiene que expresarse a través de un dibujo, de la escritura, de la poesía, del arte. En la unión está la solución. Cuando ambos lados se abrazan, entra la luz en ambos. Por eso, la conciencia unificada es la solución a esos problemas.

Este proyecto comenzó por una busqueda, con ganas de aprender de las mujeres que admiro y conocer a fondo sus historias de reinvención para tener una guía. En el camino me di cuenta que ni estaba sola, ni hay una receta para la reinvención, es un conjunto de aprendizajes, experiencias, conciencia, muuucho trabajo interno y, una especie de ensayo y error o acierto, porque de todo esto siempre queda algo aprendido. Por eso, en este episodio y para celebrar los 100, invité al Dr. Mario Alonso Puig, ¡EL PRIMER HOMBRE EN EL PODCAST! Mario es médico, fellow en cirugía graduado en Harvard University Medical School. Pero que a lo largo de su trayectoria, se dio cuenta que había algo más que un título y el reconocimiento. Decidió dedicarse a investigar cómo funciona el potencial humano, sobre todo en los momentos de desafío, incertidumbre y cambio. Hablamos del papel que juega el EGO en nuestra vida, cómo ve la ciencia la metafísica y qué hay más alla de lo que podemos ver, eso que sentimos, lo que nos hace conectar con nuestro PARA QUÉ. También nos dió su perspectiva sobre la reinvención de los hombres y de las mujeres, ¿son diferentes?

Your assumptions about the intelligence of your customer will colorize and slant your ad writing in ways of which you are not even aware. Is the customer stupid? The writer of the 139th Psalm did not believe that customers are stupid. He said to God, “I will praise you; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” Harvard University Medical School made a 3-minute film that illustrates the idea that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made.” It's called The Inner Life of a Cell, and Indy Beagle has embedded it on the first page of the rabbit hole for you. To enter the rabbit hole, all you have to do is click the image of Indy at the top of the Monday Morning Memo. In the book, Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind, we read, “Wizard's First Rule: People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People's heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.” When you make unsubstantiated claims, or if you “substantiate” your claims with sophistry, false facts, overstatements or hyperbole, you are writing under the assumption that people are stupid. But a lot of money has been made by giving gullible people false hope. When a person deeply wants to believe that what you are saying is true, they will believe it, in spite of the fact that you are lying. The assumption that people are stupid will help you write more effective political advertising, direct response advertising, and television infomercials. It will also help you build your downline in multilevel marketing. But conning stupid people out of their money is like beating up little children. I can do it, I just don't want to. There are two ways to write ads that target intelligent people. The first way is to immediately substantiate your claim with highly credible evidence each time you make a statement of benefit. EXAMPLE: Black Diamonds. Exotic. Rare. And Beautiful. A star exploded and sent an asteroid hurtling toward our galaxy a long time ago. That asteroid was more than half-a-mile wide, and it flew through space until it struck the earth. That asteroid was made of black diamonds. The National Science Foundation announced the news about these outer-space diamonds and then the New York Times wrote a story about them. Black Diamonds. Exotic. Rare. And Beautiful. The second way to advertise to intelligent persons is to use “Magical Thinking,” a style of writing characterized by elements of the impossible woven with a deadpan sense of presentation into an otherwise true story. Magical Thinking goes beyond the realm of exaggeration and moves into the realm of entertainment. EXAMPLE: Life is happier when it's less cluttered. Your house will be bigger! Your teeth will be whiter! Angels will sing! You'll be a better dancer. Go to 1-800-GotJunk.com and prepare to be amazed. If you make untrue statements and expect them to be believed, you are writing to a stupid person. But if you make untrue statements for the purposes of entertainment – knowing they will not be believed – you are writing to an intelligent person. If I provided an example of advertising filled with strong assurances, baseless claims, puffery and hyperbole with no evidence to support those claims, you would say, “Wow. I hear ads like that every day.” And now you know why people are so very annoyed by most advertising. Roy H. Williams

In this conversation on race I’m joined by Diversity pioneers and original thought leaders Lee Mun Wah and Howard Ross to talk about the current state of diversity, racism and white supremacy in the US today   Howard is known for his cutting edge work on implicit bias and Mun Wah made the ground breaking film on race, Color of Fear.   Key Topics: Origins and current state of the Trump executive order banning diversity and inclusion training in the government and companies that do business with the government. Threats against Howard Ross and his family for his work in diversity, equity and inclusion. The content of the letter suspending Mun Wah’s training with the government calling diversity and inclusion unpatriotic, propaganda and unamerican. Why diversity, equity, inclusion and conversations on race are more important now than ever in the current culture of the US and across the globe. How Black people and others protesting in the name of social justice are being shot, threatened and attacked. Overcoming resistance and fear of diversity, conversations on race and social justice. Whose lives matter? Do white lives matter more than Black lives? Do heterosexual lives matter more than LGBTQ lives The fact that the media doesn’t mention the large numbers of Native American women who have disappeared, the lack of funds to help Native American communities and the high Covid death rate in that community. How issues of racism against LatinX, Asian and other people of color are often neglected, trivialized and ignored. Intercultural Health care disparities that result in higher death rates for Black women during childbirth than white women. Howard and Mun Wah share experiences engaging in dialogues with white supremacists.   Guests Bio: Lee Mun Wah, M.A. Special Education, M.S.

Salvatore Cilmi, MD, is an Associate Professor of Medicine, an Infectious Diseases Specialist, and the Director of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr Cilmi completed his Medical school from Harvard University Medical School and Residency in Internal Medicine from Massachusetts General Hospital where he stayed on to pursue a Fellowship in Infectious Diseases. Dr. Cilmi has published extensively and has developed curricula for residency programs. He is a recipient of numerous teaching awards including the Hospital Medicine Attending of the Year, the James Smith Memorial Award and the Richard A. Herrmann Teaching Award at Weill Cornell Medical Center and the Excellence in Teaching Award from the Institute for Medical Education at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. As physicians, we're all climbing a wall of knowledge. And in the beginning of our careers, we may feel the pressure to leap over it as fast as we can. Dr. Salvatore Cilmi recalls that feeling when he was first given the title ‘doctor', but not feeling equipped to be someone's doctor just yet. And even today as a PGY-23, with massive amounts of training and experience under his belt, he continues to learn and practice. And so he reassures us: No one is expecting you to leap over the wall at once. You're not even expected to get halfway up in your first few years. But what you do need to do is find those points during this climb where you feel safe and secure - the mentors and colleagues in whom you feel comfortable revealing what you know and don't know. And through them, you will obtain the skillset and mindset to continue the climb. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. We're all climbing a wall of knowledge. Although no one expects you to leap over the whole thing, it's important to find—and hold onto—the areas of that wall you feel steady and confident. 2. As Winston Churchill said, no success is final, and no failure is fatal. It's the courage to continue. In moments of weakness or vulnerability, that is where we'll find our greatest opportunities. 3. Mentorship is learning from the whole experience. Learn from the good things and the things we don't like. This combination will help us identify what we really want. 4. Be a good listener, have an open mind, have respect, and an enthusiasm for the quest for knowledge.  

Los hijos “no son cubos vacíos que hay que llenar, son fuegos que hay que encender” a Mario Alonso Puig, Cirujano, Experto en Inteligencia Humana, Fellow de Harvard University Medical School le preguntamos cómo trabajar la motivación y desarrollo de talentos para ayudar a nuestros hijos a descubrir cómo aprender. Si los niños que se saben queridos funcionan cognitivamente mejor, ¿cómo lograr que la mirada con la que educamos como padres pueda dejar de juzgar y empezar a explorar en su mundo? no se pierdan un nuevo encuentro de #CRECER.

Advocacy takes on different roles in order to empower the voice and impact the lives of people. In today's episode, I had the opportunity to speak with Howard Ross about the past, present, and future of advocacy. Education will always be what inspires change and action will be the driving force. We see it throughout history. "My whole life I've come to realize that if you're going to spend your life shaking the trees, occasionally a coconut is going to hit you on the head."Fighting for the rights of others means fighting for a better society. Howard went to his first Civil Rights at the age of 15 and with over 55 years of advocating for others, you can see that it made a huge impact in his life. He shared with us significant impacts that his family has made when it came to advocacy. Being Jewish during the Holocaust, 43 members of Howard's family were murdered. His own grandfather was living in a village where 100 Jews were killed by Nazis. The emotional impact of what we see, hear, and live through can be the spark to initiate change. It can become a heavy shadow on the families, communities, and generations that are connected to it in some way. We see a huge shift as younger generations are taking the reigns and demanding results in a similar way that we saw Baby Boomers do when they were younger. On one hand, it can make you proud that they have the motivation to do so but on the other, it can be saddening that we are still fighting the same fight.Howard dropped nuggets about we can do better when it comes to understanding and or being part of the current wave of advocates. I stumbled into advocacy because of my personal experiences with homelessness, abuse, molestation, and divorce. Prejudice against a certain group of people usually comes from a disconnect between their story and your own. Howard's nuggets: ~ Remember those that came before you and the life the lived ~ Use the emotional impact as fuel but be strategic ~ Understand that change does not always happen immediately~ Do the research on what you hear~ Protests matter and have their place in initiating change ~ Anger and rage are valid emotions when you feel unheard or mistreated~ NEVER label the majority by the actions of the few This episode will be my most memorable because the current climate of the world is a tough one to navigate. I appreciate the advocates that stand up in the face of fear, miseducation, prejudice, and miscommunication to fight for something bigger than them. I think back to when I first watched movies like Freedom Writers and Lean on Me. It was significant for me because it was a seed of understanding that we each can do something that matters. We each have the power to make an impact. To the advocates who consistently fight for change...we see you! Thank you!

What makes you feel like you have an impact on the environment around you, the world around you, in general. And then more specifically, that you have an impact on relationships with others.

In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, my guest’s expertise ranges from trauma, attachment theory and hypnosis to ancient traditions of meditation. In fact, he’s a Buddhist Meditation Master. This is the first of a two-part series you don’t want to miss.Dan Brown, Ph.D., is an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychology at Harvard University Medical School. He also teaches hypnotherapy. He’s been on the faculty for nearly 40 years. We explore how early childhood attachment can define your relationships positively or negatively. As the world-leading expert on attachment theory, Dr. Brown shares share his research findings and give you options.“There are two relational maps,” says Dr. Brown. “The first one forms about 12 to 20 months. That's the attachment map. The second one forms about the third and fourth year of life. That's called CCRT or Core Conflict Relationship Theme map. The difference between those two maps is the second map is much more complicated, and it's much more accessible to memory. The difference, put simply, is that there's a difference between whether you have trouble with relationships or within relationships.”Dr. Brown also expanded his work to study the Buddhist approach.“In the West we study psychopathology and psychiatric conditions,” he says. “In Buddhism, they studied positive states, so that's the other half of the map. Once you've worked through the negative stuff, all that leaves you with is a basic everyday unhappiness. If you work on developing the mind in the positive sense, you will be onto happiness and contentment in life, into awakening.”I asked Dr. Brown how people could fix the broken stuff if they had early childhood trauma and were struggling in their adult relationships. He offers hope, treatments and says no one is left behind if they need help. The other really cool thing we get into is hypnosis, which is actually just a “talent for heightened attentiveness.” Dr. Brown worked for over 100 hours with Sirhan Sirhan, the man accused of assassinating Robert F. Kennedy. You didn’t see that coming, did you? Listen on to learn what he found out! Enjoy the show!

Dr. Michael Fox is an Associate Professor of Neurology at the Harvard University Medical School and Director of the Laboratory for Brain Network Imaging and Modulation. In addition, Mike is Associate Director of the Berenson-Allen Center for Noninvasive Brain Stimulation, Co-Director of the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Deep Brain Stimulation Program, Assistant Neuroscientist at Massachusetts General Hospital, and a practicing clinical neurologist at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. In Mike’s research, he uses wiring diagrams of the human brain to try to make sense of brain problems and help patients. In the clinic, Mike treats patients with movement disorders like tremor and Parkinson’s disease using deep brain stimulation. He also uses noninvasive brain stimulation to treat people with psychiatric conditions like depression. When Mike isn’t doing research in his lab or working with patients in the clinic, he loves spending time with his wife and two daughters. They enjoy hiking and having fun outdoors together. He received his bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from The Ohio State University, and he was awarded his MD and PhD from Washington University in St. Louis. Afterwards, Mike completed a medical internship at Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis. Next, he completed his Neurology Residency and Movement Disorders Fellowship at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston before becoming a faculty member with the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School. Mike is the recipient of the inaugural Trailblazer Prize for Clinician-Scientists from the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health. In our interview, Mike tells us more about his life and science.

Dr. David Bernstein is a well respected, highly educated professional who has held appointments at Yale University School of Medicine, where he completed his doctoral internship, and Harvard University Medical School, where he completed his postdoctoral residency in Forensic Psychology in the Department of Law and Psychiatry.  Anyone who has come into contact with him can be forgiven for thinking that this highly intelligent professional probably grew up in a life of privilege which enabled him to go to the best schools.  But the reality is this strong advocate for working to correct the Foster Care System is himself a product of it.  David’s life started as an abandoned child, discovered on a New York City park bench in his infancy.  He became a Ward of the State, going from foster home to foster home, often running away from the abusive situations where he actually felt safer living on the streets or in abandoned buildings. The Foster Care System is often been referred to as a vicious cycle of abuse and neglect.  It’s known to be difficult to leave the world of poverty, teen pregnancy, sex abuse and crime behind.  Those who manage to escape its harsh grip rarely look back.  But David Bernstein did.  He has confronted his past and is trying to make a better future for those who currently follow in his foster care footsteps. He consults with federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies.  He’s an expert in threat assessment and violence, able to tap into the instincts he honed as a child growing up homeless.

He is also Director of the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts and Director of the Tufts Center for Regenerative and Developmental Biology. In addition, Mike is a Visiting Scholar at the Wyss Institute at Harvard. Mike seeks to better understand how living things work. Specifically, he studies how cells and tissues make decisions, computations that occur in living systems, and the mechanisms that allow cells and complex structures to arise through evolution and to be created during development and regeneration. When he’s not thinking about science, Mike spends his time with his wife and kids, enjoys the outdoors, goes kayaking, and takes lots of photos of the natural world. His photo portfolio includes many striking panoramic shots and microphotography of insects. Mike received his B.S. in Computer Science and Biology from Tufts University and his Ph.D. in Genetics from Harvard University Medical School. He remained at Harvard University afterwards to conduct research in molecular embryology under a Helen Hay Whitney Foundation post-doctoral fellowship. Next, Mike joined the faculty at Harvard and also became a member of the research staff at the Forsyth Institute. During his career, Mike has received numerous honors and accolades. He was awarded a Junior Investigator Award from the Society for Physical Regulation in Biology and Medicine, the Distinguished Scholar Award from Tufts University, the Scientist of Vision Award from the International Functional Electrical Stimulation Society, and the Established Investigator Award from the American Heart Association. In our interview, Mike shares more about his life and science.
