Bio
I believe we can discover unexpected things that can transform our lives. I have lived and performed research in 4 countries and 2 continents. Previously I was a postdoc at Harvard. I founded Promakhos because I think we have given to “autoimmune” diseases a grossly misleading name and we treat them in a primitive way. Promakhos means the first to enter a battle. In ancient Greece Promakhos was the strongest to put in the front line of an army so that they will not even have to start a battle.
