Checking In

I had a solid run here and on Substack but things got busy as they often will. The good news is that I’ve now finished the revision of the book manuscript and am now in a real editing phase for flow and readability. Its going faster than I expected because the material is hanging together well.

Writing for Substack weekly was a great exercise in working out complex ideas in short form and it improved my writing skill to a level that enabled me to begin to achieve what I’m after. I’m sure there’s still a long way to go before I’m done, that point where I’m not making it any better with my changes. For now, the improvements are big in this first round.

And yes, I picked up a camera again. Its been too long and I take that as a good sign of emerging back into a creative mindset.

I'm an MD, PhD Neurologist who left a successful academic career on the Faculty of The Johns Hopkins Medical School to develop new treatments in Biotech and Pharma. I became fascinated with how people actually make decisions based on the science of decision theory and emerging understanding of how the brain works to make decisions. My passion now is this deep explanation of what has been the realm of philosophy, psychology and self help but is now understood as brain function. By understanding our brains, I believe we can become happier, more successful people.
