Dr. Bret Scher

Bret has spent most of his 20-year career as a preventive cardiologist, helping people improve their metabolic health and preventing heart disease using low carb nutrition and lifestyle interventions. His deep passion for educating the public about the benefits of metabolic therapies grew from his experience with the prevailing medical teaching, which frequently misrepresents nutrition science and undervalues metabolic health. 
Bret received a BS in Biology from Stanford University and an MD from The Ohio State University College of Medicine. He grew up in San Diego and began competing in triathlons at an early age which helped fuel his love of health and fitness. He continues to enjoy spending time outdoors mountain biking, swimming, hiking, and playing baseball with his two boys.

Hannah Warren

Hannah Warren is an artist, writer, and social entrepreneur. She joined Baszucki Group and its initiative, Metabolic Mind, in November 2023 as Mental Health Communications and Advocacy Manager. These organizations are focused on advancing the science of metabolic psychiatry to drive long term, systemic change in the mental health field, while equipping patients, families and clinicians with resources to implement metabolic therapies today.  
In July 2021, Hannah started ketogenic therapy and ultimately put her bipolar 1 disorder into complete remission. This experience inspired her to devote her career to disseminating the science of metabolic therapies and working to make them a first-line treatment option. Hannah serves as a volunteer with the Brain Energy Movement started by Dr. Christopher Palmer to spread awareness of the brain energy theory. Today, she actively implements treatments for neurometabolic dysfunction including ketogenic therapy, intermittent fasting, exercise and meditation.

Q&A Host: Dr. Dominic D'Agostino, PhD

Dominic D’Agostino is an Associate Professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Physiology at the University of South Florida. He is also a Senior Research Scientist at the Institute for Human & Machine Cognition. He holds a Ph.D. in Physiology and Neuroscience from Rutgers University. His research focuses on developing and testing metabolic therapies, including ketogenic diets, ketone esters, ketone supplements and metabolic-based drugs, to enhance neurological and physiological resilience under environmental extremes and to treat a broad range of disorders linked pathophysiologically to metabolic dysregulation, including seizures, neurological disorders, wound healing, muscle wasting and cancer.
