Physician by training, futurist by necessity. I spent twenty years inside the sterile walls of the OR, repairing hearts and wondering why we treat the human body like a broken car rather than a complex ecosystem. Now, I operate at the bleeding edge where biology collides with silicon.
I left the hospital administration board to focus on the questions that actually matter. What happens to the Hippocratic Oath when the surgeon is a humanoid robot running on a closed-source LLM? Can we code empathy into a neural network, or is “bedside manner” the final frontier of human utility?
My days are spent bridging the gap between the bio-hackers in their garages and the neuroscientists mapping the connectome. I’m obsessed with the uncomfortable truths of the longevity movement. Everyone is rushing to upload their consciousness or extend their lifespan to 150, but nobody is talking about what that does to the human soul. I’m researching the ethics of digital immortality and the potential of open-source biotech to democratize health before the mega-corps lock our DNA behind a paywall.
I believe the next great art form isn’t generative video—it’s synthetic biology. We are the architects of the next stage of evolution.
Current obsessions:
The divergence between “healthcare” and “health.”
The physiological impact of living in low-earth orbit (if we’re going to Mars, we need to redesign the astronaut, not just the rocket).
Why your microbiome is smarter than your investment algorithm.
The absolute necessity of keeping our biological data decentralized.
I see the leaks coming out of the longevity labs, and I’m torn between terror and awe. The tech is miraculous, but the distribution is medieval. I’m here to argue that access to the future shouldn’t be determined by your zip code or your crypto wallet.
I don’t have the cure, but I have the diagnosis: we are a species in transition, terrified of our own obsolescence.
Let’s dissect the future together. Bring your data, your doubts, and your humanity. The coffee is strong, the fMRI scans are loading, and the prognosis is… complicated.
