Today we have the pleasure of interviewing Greg Dowty. A former marine and now a scientist, his company's goal is to change the way we handle tough mental challenges. A passion... We represent a new force in the behavioral sciences that reverses the flow of information. Until recently, clinicians have been in a trickle-down economy when it comes to applying research in their practice. Our goal is to create a torrent of activity that directly feeds the efforts of those on the front line. Our system is built on utilizing data from all available sources. Our plan is to give back in the form of outcomes and in AI solutions. We are here to make a significant impact. Meets new science... Neurology and the advent of increasingly advanced imaging technology is the great equalizer that enables our work through design and, eventually, as a source of data. The neurosciences have already made an impact in mental health treatment through verifying the effectiveness of activities historically neglected by research such as meditation, yoga, and mindfulness training. Beneficial practices have gained serious traction in both research and practice. We will initially advance through the collection of data from those who have the most exposure to the behavior and situations that impact their life. And, in this context, the educated, trained, licensed and experienced clinicians that work with them. And busts a paradigm. Imagine the information that we will all have when we collect this targeted data from tens of thousands of clinicians over the next 2,4,10+ years. Now imagine that the data collected represents every known environmental impact and its influence on cognitive/affective processing throughout the progression of a specific behavior. Finally, what if the program were to loop the analytics back into the system and... learn... to become more efficient... more predictive. The benefit would be staggering and it would change the way we understand and respond to behavior. Check out his work at: https://thelipidbrain.com/ Be Bold Dave
