Just a moment about his background. Um, is a post-doctoral researcher. So Philippe Golden is a postdoctoral researcher in clinically applied affective neuroscience in the Department of Psychology at Stanford, holds a PhD in clinical psychology from Rutgers.
He also spent six years in India and Nepal studying languages, Budhist philosophy and debate, which means that he can prove you wrong in a nonviolent way, in languages you don't even understand. Dang. Felipe is currently doing clinical research funded by the NIH in three areas. And here I have to read because otherwise I'll say it all wrong.
