Disclosures

A note on perspective, sources, and process.

These disclosures apply to the essays published in Beyond the Measure.

Personal views

These essays represent my personal reflections and opinions. They do not represent the views of Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, or any other institution with which I am affiliated.

Educational purpose

The writing is intended for general educational and reflective purposes. It does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it does not establish a physician–patient relationship. Readers should seek appropriate professional guidance for questions about their own health or care.

Sources

My writing may draw upon published research, books, articles, websites, and other sources, which I aim to identify or link where relevant. Readers interested in factual or scientific claims should consult the original sources.

Editorial use of generative AI

I sometimes use generative AI as an editorial tool—to organize ideas, refine language, explore alternative formulations, and work through writer’s block. The ideas I choose to express, the conclusions I reach, and responsibility for the published material remain my own.
