This board benefits greatly from the presence of doctors and researchers (e.g. Prof Edwards), and I imagine discussion would be even richer with more of them.

Does anyone have any thoughts on good ways to bring them in?

And any good candidates to invite?

Obviously they are busy, and we want them to focus on their good work, but an occasional appearance would be mutually beneficial given all the brilliant minds here endlessly debating their papers and theories.

For example, wouldn't it be nice to have Øystein Fluge or Robert Naviaux do an hour long Q&A once a month?
