As a physician & a lifelong learner, "Assembly Theory" hit me like a lightning bolt. I read compulsively & finally had to write it down because some concepts demand to be shared. It kept me awake at night. I hope it does the same for you.

Every Indian doctor knows someone who got TB during training.
We blamed exposure. The truth was architecture.
India has laws for factory exhaust, none for hospital air.
The Air We Don’t Regulate — on the epidemic built into our buildings.

Fasinating! A patient seeing her own brain in mixed reality, and understanding her aneurysm before surgery.

For decades, the appendix was the punchline of anatomy — a leftover, an afterthought.
Evolution didn’t keep it by accident.

Just read the new @PNASNexus paper claiming ChatGPT leads to “shallower learning.” The real story? It didn’t measure #AI ’s impact — it measured how untrained we are to think with it. Pedagogy, not technology, determines depth.

Karnataka turns 69 today.
Flags flutter. Speeches rehearse.
But behind the anthem is a case sheet — full of vitals, budgets, and silent deaths.
Here’s a doctor’s reading of the state’s health, history, and conscience.

We're running an uncontrolled experiment on Indian children's brains.
Every cough syrup. Every appetite stimulant. Anticholinergics blocking neurotransmitters in developing brains.
The worst part? We're doing it to calm OUR anxiety, not cure THEIR illness.👇

Every time two people have sex, their immune systems meet.
They exchange information — and if the bond lasts, the body learns that partner’s molecular signature.
Not metaphor. Biology.

Ray Kurzweil predicts #AI will cure all diseases, merge our brains with the cloud, and multiply our intelligence a millionfold.
He also has other interests.....
