Today's interview on Redefining Medicine features Pablos Holman: self-described ‘futurist, inventor, and notorious hacker.' Holman has consulted worldwide on invention and design projects that assimilate the newest technological advances and developments. With a current position at the Intellectual Ventures Laboratory, Holman works on a variety of futuristic, innovative projects that spark progress. Some of his initiatives include a fission reactor powered by nuclear waste, a machine to suppress hurricanes, strategies to reverse global warming, and a device designed to shoot mosquitos with lasers in order to eradicate malaria. Holman's work represents an entirely new frontier of medicine, continuously challenging what was once considered possible in healthcare research.
