Chapters
Well, I want to say a few.
Words to you, one of my most.
Treasured and privileged friends, FMU subscriber from the years past.
Function Medicine Update, as you know, was.
Close to my heart over those many decades.
And we've got something that we're doing.

My time that I think is right.
In your wheelhouse, right where you might be most excited.

Leaders Consortium meeting holding at the Sheraton.
Wild Horse Pass Resort in Phoenix, Arizona, October 22nd and 23rd.

You'Re going to find this one of.
Those experiences that is just absolutely amazing.
It's going to be an event, not just a meeting.
How do you know that?
Well, that's an interesting question.
I think there are three variables, one.
Of which is the facility.
And as I said, we've got a world class facility.
But the two others are the most.
Important and that is your faculty and your delegates. And we have an amazing array of both.
We've got our faculty, including Dr. Siddhartha.
Mukherjee, who you know is a Pulitzer Prize winning author for his book the.
Emperor of All Maladies. Now his second book out the A.
Personal Journey that's absolutely fantastic, that lays out a landscape of where genetics and.
Genomics will interface and transform medicine.
We have Dr. Helen Messier and Dr.
Nathan Price coming both from Health Nucleus and the Craig Venter Group in San Diego and from Eraval at the Institute for Systems Biology in Seattle to talk about what is scientific wellness and how is it emerging with these new biometric analyses. We have Anita Goel coming to the.
Meeting as a faculty from Harvard mit developing nanobiosystems for to be able to.
Analyze hundreds of different analytes in very small volumes of biological fluids accurately, precisely and inexpensively. This is going to transform diagnostics and prognostics. We've got Dan Kraft coming from Single Singularity University to talk about the future of interfacing personal precision healthcare with regard.
To the healthcare delivery system.
We've got Rob Knight, arguably one of.
The world's most well known experts in the biomicrobiome revolution. And then of course, the clinical application of this with Mark Hyman, Dr. Mark.
Hyman, Dr. Patrick Hanaway coming to tell.
Us about the clinical outcome that is.
Occurring at the Functional Medicine Clinic at the Cleveland Clinic and how when the.
Tire meets the road, all these things.
Actually create greater patient value and improved outcome.
So this is really going to be.
One of those events that people will be talking about.
I think it's one of those meetings.
That later people say, I was there.
It's a little bit like Woodstock. You know how many people said they were at Woodstock?
But I think you'll find that this is going to be transformative in so many respects.
So put on your calendar. October 22nd, 23rd.
