Peter D'Adamo, ND, MIFHI
Distinguished Clinical Professor, UB Health Sciences
Director, COE Generative Medicine
"I am afraid that Peter's merits are not estimated enough in the scientific world. Therefore it seems to me necessary, not only to promote his concept here in Europe, but also to tell him that I acknowledge him as one of the most creative scientists in the Western world." ---Professor Gerhard Uhlenbruck, PhD, MD, Institute for Immunobiology at the University of Cologne
Peter D'Adamo is a naturopathic physician, author, researcher-educator, Ivesian, software developer and air-cooled enthusiast. He has an abiding interest in glycobiology, principally the ABO blood groups, the secretor (FUT2) polymorphisms and computer languages such as Perl (as applied to genomic and information systematics) , OWL/RDF (ontology and semantic languages), BioPAX, SBML, and ABM (agent based modeling) that can be applied to biomedical heuristics and other worthwhile dilemmas. Dr. D'Adamo teaches generative medicine and introduction to biochemical individuality at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine and supervises a specialized clinic shift in personalized medicine.

Ginger Nash, ND, MIFHI
After meeting Dr. Peter D'Adamo, Dr. Nash immersed herself in the study of epigenetics and became a Master of the Institute for Human Individuality in 2007. The concept of personalized medicine had always been a cornerstone of her work with homeopathy and now the science of epigenetics dovetailed with that beautifully. Seeing patients along side Dr. D'Adamo has been a tremendous benefit to her understanding of nutrition and individuality.
Dr. Nash received a grant from the International Lyme and Associated Diseases (ILADS) Foundation to study the effects of tick borne illness on her patient population. She incorporates the best of naturopathic medicine with traditional medicine when treating Lyme disease and the potentially devastating effects of this endemic problem in Connecticut.
Dr. Nash taught at the University of Bridgeport's College of Naturopathic Medicine clinic for three years and continues to teach seminars and teleconferences for health care practitioners throughout the U.S. and Canada.
