About the notebook
About the thymulin notebook
A connection that can be examined gives integrative a useful meaning.
Small experiments, large connections
Indy Integrative Medicine is the name of this research notebook. Published research interests me when a small, awkward experiment improves a large, comfortable idea. Thymulin has been particularly good at upsetting the separate compartments in which I had placed immunity, mineral chemistry and hormone regulation.
An experiment that can be taken apart suits my temperament: remove a metal, replace a missing signal, see which response changes. That explanatory work suits me. A long list of possible uses has much less appeal.
Name, purpose and boundaries
There is no medical business behind Indy Integrative Medicine. This is not a clinic or a treatment service; there are no consultations, prescriptions or products available here. The geographic suggestion in the title is a name, not a claim about a local practice.
Nothing in this notebook is medical advice. I am comfortable disputing an interpretation of a paper; assessing symptoms or choosing care is beyond this publication. The contact page explains the limits of the site's current contact arrangements.
