What is the topic?

In this interview with one of the World’s most renowned Neurotologists and Neuroscience Researches, we will explore some of the possible scenarios on the future of health. Our guest, Dr. Erik Viirre, has recently conducted research on the brain and stem cell replication capabilities in microgravity that hint on a future where human beings might not be the same on earth as those born on a different planet.

Dr. Viirre will also talk on the current trends that should provide a framework for upgrading how we see healthcare for good.

With evergrowing interest in Biohacking, it is all so important to state that all of the health tracking wearables that people are importing to their lifestyle have the potential of changing how we see healthcare. The information that we now have and can provide can be the turning point of switching healthcare from “disease management” to what it is actually supposed to be.

A member of numerous scientific boards, Dr. Viirre is also an Research Professor in the UC San Diego Department of Cognitive Science and a research associate of the US Navy Naval Medical Center San Diego.

As a biomedical researcher and neurophysiologist, Dr. Viirre’s interests include investigation of the origin and management of vertigo and tinnitus, including management of vertigo with virtual reality techniques. He has carried out clinical trials on medical assessment and treatment of neurotologic disorders such as benign positional vertigo and migraine, and has been working on development of a tinnitus therapy program for patients. He also collaborates with cognitive scientists and engineers in the development of systems to assess cognitive state during human-computer interactions.

Dr. Viirre is a teacher, mentor, and advisor to medical students, post-graduate students, otolaryngology residents, and fellows, in clinical work as well as research. He attended the University of Western Ontario, where he earned his PhD in Physiology in 1987 and his MD in 1988. He did post-graduate work at the International Space University at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, followed by clinical and research work in neurotology at the London Ear Clinic in Ontario, Canada.
