Scientific MOOCs follower. Author of Airpocalypse, a techno-medical thriller (Out Summer 2017)


Welcome to the digital era of biology (and to this modest blog I started in early 2005).

To cure many diseases, like cancer or cystic fibrosis, we will need to target genes (mutations, for ex.), not organs! I am convinced that the future of replacement medicine (organ transplant) is genomics (the science of the human genome). In 10 years we will be replacing (modifying) genes; not organs!

I am an early adopter of scientific MOOCs. I've earned myself four MIT digital diplomas: 7.00x, 7.28x1, 7.28.x2 and 7QBWx. Instructor of 7.00x: Eric Lander PhD.

Upcoming books: Airpocalypse, a medical thriller (action taking place in Beijing) 2017; Jesus CRISPR Superstar, a sci-fi -- French title: La Passion du CRISPR (2018).

I love Genomics. Would you rather donate your data, or... your vital organs? Imagine all the people sharing their data...

Best Book Of The Month Nonfiction (Amazon): "The Patient Will See You Now". Looks like health care needs a massive reboot...


"It's not about looking something up on the internet. It's about your own data, real time."

Eric Topol MD, Cardiologist: "Patients can now have their own cardiogram on their iPhone."
Putting patients in charge of their own data, instead of Doctors?
Putting patients in charge of their data instead of Doctors? Sounds like a printing press revolution.
"It's not about looking something up on the internet. It's about your own data, real time."
Healthcare revolution will comme from outside of healthcare.
The Future of Medicine? Doctors will still be needed.

If I am not mistaken, author of Patient Will See You Now #PWSYN is saying hospitals are becoming obsolete; not doctors http://huff.lv/1xlKOh1
