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
coherence; combining insights from microbiome science, immune
regulation, and cognitive framing.

Louis A. Meilink Jr., FAIA, FACHA, ACHE
Louis Meilink’s great passion is architecture for health. As long-time leader of Ballinger’s healthcare practice, trusted partner to renowned healthcare institutions, and recognized pioneer in evidence-based design, he specializes in the intersection of design excellence and clinical expertise. Since joining Ballinger in 1987, he has honed a design approach founded on curiosity and guided by inquiry. With those vital sparks as fuel, Lou ensures Ballinger’s teams ask the right questions, address the right problems, and, in that way, reach the right answers. Lou’s work demonstrates that when you meld passion with persistence, you can overcome obstacles, uncover solutions, and unlock the power of design to lead cultural change.
