Episode 22-29 Tech Visionary – No Tech

On this week’s Tech Nation, Moira speaks with

John Markoff, the former New York Times journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner, to talk about someone we would call today an “influencer” – only he has been influencing now for decades. Markoff’s book is “Whole Earth: The Many Lives of Stewart Brand”.

Then in biotech, Dr. James Mackey, the President & CEO, Aristea Therapeutics, tells about a painful disease which affects the palms of hand and soles of feet in post-menopausal women - Palmoplantar pustulosis or PPP - and how it may relate to other diseases.
