I do hope that that discussion will benefit all of you.

I'm certainly we are certainly, I should say, very open to your input.

That discussion, of course, raises more questions than it provides answers.

But I think we can all agree that this is an extremely important

Before we begin, I'd like to emphasize that this podcast is separate from my teaching and research roles at Stanford.

It is, however, part of my desire and effort to bring zero cost to consumer information about science and science related tools to the general public.

In keeping with that theme, today's episode does include sponsors.

All right, my book is finally ready for release.

Protocols, an operating manual for the human body is coming out in three months.

It's my first book and I've been working on it for many years now.
