"Technology evolves faster than law, and eclipses our ability to regulate. Ultimately the evolution of medicine and law is about the fate of humanity itself. We’re not just getting rid of disease. we’re transforming our bodies and minds into vessels that can navigate the millennia ahead.
We’re in a race for our future as a species: accelerating technology on one hand, humanity on the other. Beyond law, and beyond regulation, we need to train our leaders in wisdom."
Michael taught at Harvard Medical School & Harvard School of Public Health, & won a fellowship at Harvard Divinity School. Michael's distinctive background ranges from a prestigious Wall Street law firm to an interfaith seminary.

I heard Michael present the legal landscape of this very novel and unfamiliar area of health care to a ballroom filled with thought leaders from medical education and health care delivery systems, and was immediately impressed with his intellect and thoughtfulness. On that day he not only summarized the state of the law regarding complementary medicine, but also gave us a glimpse of what the future might hold for medicine.
