Dr. David Rabin has built a career out of curing the incurable. Now, he’s on a mission to revolutionize health and medicine – and reveal just how much power we have to heal ourselves from injury and illness.
Dr. Dave is a neuroscientist, board-certified psychiatrist, and health tech entrepreneur. His company Apollo Neuroscience has developed the first wearable technology that actively improves energy, focus, and relaxation, using a novel touch therapy that signals safety to the brain, all backed by science.

On the cutting edge of medicine and the mind, Dr. Dave has always been fascinated by consciousness and our inherent ability to heal ourselves from injury and illness. As such, he has specifically focused his research on the clinical translation of non-invasive therapies for patients with treatment-resistant illnesses like PTSD and substance use disorders, as well as chronic stress.
In addition to his clinical psychiatry practice, Dr. Dave is currently conducting research on the epigenetic regulation of trauma responses and recovery to elucidate the mechanism of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and the neurobiology of belief. He is also the co-founder and executive director of the Board of Medicine, a nonprofit organization of physicians and scientists establishing the first peer-reviewed, evidence-based clinical guidelines for the production and safe use of currently unregulated alternative medicines, including plant medicines.
Dr. Dave and his work has been featured in media all over the world, including The New York Times, Men's Health, Vogue, and on The Tim Ferriss Show. He has been married to his co-founder, Kathryn Fantauzzi, since 2016.

• How plant and alternative medicines are reshaping the medical industry
