Dr. Mah-dava Set-tee is a board certified and senior staff anesthesiologist Lawrence General Hospital in the Greater Boston area. He is also a senior science editor for Bobby Kennedy's Children's Health Defense publication The Defender. Madhava received an engineering degree from MIT and later worked for the aerospace and defense industries. This included a research expedition to the Arctic polar cap for US Naval Research. Dissatisfied with the nature and purpose of defense work, he went back to school to receive a medical degree from Baylor University College of Medicine and anesthesiology training at the University of Pennsylvania. With over 20 years experience in the field of anesthesiology, which involves dealing with the most challenging questions about the nature of mind and consciousness, Dr Setty has been challenging modern medicine and neuroscience's fundamental assumptions about the meaning of awareness.
