Scientific MOOCs follower. Author of Airpocalypse, a techno-medical thriller (Out Summer 2017)


Welcome to the digital era of biology (and to this modest blog I started in early 2005).

To cure many diseases, like cancer or cystic fibrosis, we will need to target genes (mutations, for ex.), not organs! I am convinced that the future of replacement medicine (organ transplant) is genomics (the science of the human genome). In 10 years we will be replacing (modifying) genes; not organs!


Anticipating the $100 genome era and the P4™ medicine revolution. P4 Medicine (Predictive, Personalized, Preventive, & Participatory): Catalyzing a Revolution from Reactive to Proactive Medicine.


I am an early adopter of scientific MOOCs. I've earned myself four MIT digital diplomas: 7.00x, 7.28x1, 7.28.x2 and 7QBWx. Instructor of 7.00x: Eric Lander PhD.

Upcoming books: Airpocalypse, a medical thriller (action taking place in Beijing) 2017; Jesus CRISPR Superstar, a sci-fi -- French title: La Passion du CRISPR (2018).

I love Genomics. Would you rather donate your data, or... your vital organs? Imagine all the people sharing their data...

My MOOC evangelist jacket. Cool! It was painted early 2015 by Regina Holliday, 
Founder of The Walking Gallery of Health Care & author of "The Writing on the Wall".



Our software (DNA) is making its own hardware (proteins, cells). Welcome to the digital era of biology! Time to learn about it.

Yes, this is dying Steve Jobs. Welcome to the digital era of biology!

Thank you thank you thank you Regina Holliday, Founder of the Walking Gallery of Health Care! Just received my jacket... I'm in the middle of my final exam for 3rd diploma in genomics at MIT *right now*...


I am now a biology MOOC evangelist... 
So... How do you like my new jacket? ... Soon you will discover the story behind it...
