Stan Martinez
Human biology has always been a passion of mine. Being naturally curious, I studied biology at the university for several years. My goal at Gilmore Health is to pass on and share the sometimes obscure information I receive from scientists. The challenges are many and varied, but I look forward to bringing this wonderful world of life and its interactions to more people. Because the whole is more than the sum of the parts, I want to enable everyone to have the elements necessary to understand health issues. I believe that curiosity should be shared.
