This episode serves as an introduction to the show! My objective is to advance Naturopathic medicine using an evidence-based approach, and I focus on finding evolutionary connections between our modern and traditional health care systems. On top of being a full-time student, I am currently a senior research assistant at SCNM and I am also an associate researcher at Arizona State University Biodesign Institute, where I focus on botanical medicine research. I am not a doctor (yet), so I can't give any medical advise. But I can ask a ton of questions. In the last three and a half years, I've met some incredible people, and I want to share their work with you!
