Dr. Ianchulev’s innovation journey from an eye doctor to an i-doctor at the intersection of technology, medicine and healing
Introduction: In 2011, on the center stage of a Congressional hearing on medical technologies and FDA regulation of bio-tech and med-tech innovation, five medical experts and leaders in the field were asked by Congress to provide opinion and testimonials. One of them was Sean Ianchulev, MD MPH – a Harvard-trained doctor, professor of ophthalmology at the University of California San Francisco whose academic work and innovations had made a difference in millions of patients with cutting edge breakthrough technologies – from first-of-a-kind antibody treatments for blinding eye diseases to laser guided high-precision eye surgery technology. Dr. Ianchulev advised congressional leaders and shared insights on what it takes to invent and productize game-changing transformations in medicine and how America needs to foster innovation in order to maintain leadership in the field. As one of the handful of physicians innovators in the world who have invented, developed and introduced FDA approved treatments and products, his testimony was essential in guiding legislators in finding the right balance between innovation and FDA regulation as new laws were introduced for the development of medical technology.

Nightbitch by Rachel Yoder
INSANE journey of a book. In the very best of ways. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to get into this book at first, put off by this idea of the literal transformation of the story’s human protagonist into a dog, but Rachel Yoder’s impeccable writing made her physical transformation just as poignant and as meaningful as her psychological one. The metaphor of Nightbitch’s transformation into a dog displays the animalistic side of motherhood, the side that can be ugly while being strangely beautiful, in all of its love and its violence. Motherhood is a complex, multi-faceted gift, and a curse, and a miracle.

making space
Since the only thing that might pull us back up is caring, it only makes sense that here, long after I’ve let my anger born of heartbreak and grief misplace, multiply, misdirect itself, let the enormity of my solitude turn into something I don’t know how to dispute with, something thick and heavy and suffocating, let the coldness thrash and fight under my skin, deeper still, in between the arches of my organs; here where the ground is always close and the fall is easy and I surrender to it often, lie without purpose for hours, it only makes sense that it is here, I decide to show up and surrender to the possibilities of the night. Show up to those who I deserted. Drawn to the sense of accomplishment, something I haven’t felt in a while, to memory of finished dish sending its aroma into the world and with it, wrapping the room with a strong sense of sweet nostalgia, I get up and decide to cook. I pick up my phone, type a message that reads “Dinner at mine @ 8PM, don’t bring anything” and before my courage deserts me again, drop it in our friends’ group chat, the way one would do when diffusing a bomb in the movies: one eye closed, snip at the wire, hoping for the best.
