Stephen Garner is a patient researching their own disease, exploring
the frontiers of human knowledge, and developing new frameworks as an
ethical theorist. After reducing the severity and frequency of his own
autoimmune symptoms through targeted nutrition, biochemical modeling,
and self-experimentation, Stephen now shares his experience, and
findings, to help others better understand and manage chronic illness.
With a background in emergency services, information technology, and
scientific theory-building, he brings a systems-oriented lens to the
intersection of health, ethics, and personal agency. His current work
focuses on giving the body the tools it needs to maintain systems
