I dropped out of high school four times between the ages of 12 to 17.

I have expertise in five different fields which helps me to easily understand the analogy between my scientific problems and those occurring in nature.

Our lives sometimes depend on computers performing as predicted.

The Connection Machine was the most powerful supercomputer in the world. It is a complex supercomputer and it will take forever to completely describe how it works.

The greatest grand challenge for any scientist is discovering how to prevent the spread of HIV and finding the cure or an effective vaccine for AIDS.

The 65,536 processors were inside the Connection Machine.

Because I am not formally trained in the medical sciences, I can bring in new ideas to AIDS research and the cross-fertilization of ideas from different fields could be a valuable contribution to finding the cure for AIDS.
