Have you ever talked with someone so smart that you wonder how they function talking to ordinary people like you? That’s what it is like when I talk with this episode’s guest, Dr. Gurinder Bains. Seriously, this guy has got a huge brain. I had the pleasure of serving with him on the Board of Directors and got to know that he’s also got a wicked sense of humor…must be why he hangs with AATH, eh? In our interview, he shares some of his previous research that he’s done but also what he’s currently working on. Grab something to write with because you’re going to want to take some notes from this incredible person! Enjoy!
