Third book

Surprisingly, the fact is that there are 14 years between these books. Exactly as much as, according to Leo Tolstoy's inner feeling, is one cycle of human maturation. He had an almost intimate idea of the periodization of life — conditional segments in which every fourteen years a person reaches a new level of understanding.

If we put aside excessive modesty (for a short time and strictly for scientific purposes), and try this logic on ourselves, we get a curious picture. The first book is a level of observation. The second is the level of understanding. And there are those fourteen years between them.

As a person who has suddenly discovered a Tolstoyan in himself, I am especially pleased with this coincidence. Tolstoy's early period is form, observation, description; his mature period is meaning, foundations, and philosophy. Everything is almost mirrored for me: the first book is about morphology (about what is visible), the second is about phenotypes (about what it means). It's even kind of awkward from such symmetry, but it's hard to argue with the facts.

If we continue this logic, the next book should inevitably be no longer about what we see or even what we understand, but about what to do about it. That is, about management and prediction.

And then it will no longer be just books, but a consistent ontology of a new type of dermatology, in which the stages are clearly traced.:

1 . Dermatovenerology
→ Observation
→ morphology
→ language of the symptom

2 . Phenotypic dermatology
→ discrimination
→ cell
→ language of explanation

3️⃣ Next level
→ Management
→ forecast
→ Solution language

The seemingly simple task remains — to name the third book. But this is where the fun begins.

Because this is no longer just about the name, but about the formulation of the next stage of work, which, if we are to be consistent, will also take about 14 years. This means that the name should include everything: modeling of skin conditions, prognosis of the course, management of phenotypes, and decision-making algorithms. The first thing you ask for is "Modeling in dermatology." Too easy? Maybe. Not bold enough? It's also possible.

And here comes a thought that, admittedly, is a bit disciplining – by choosing a name, I am essentially choosing what the next stage of my scientific life will be called... fourteen years long.  Hello, Lev Nikolaevich....

One of the cities obligatory for visiting on the way to the Papuans – Jakarta

I want to take a breath – we have done it! The expedition Live Parallel 2013 – Papua New Guinea where we walked many kilometers through the jungle, spent tens of kilometers inside the tarantas and hundreds of kilometers on board small planes flying on the same principle as a route-taxi, has come to an end without loss and above all with the result! But it could be otherwise… Well, let us not talk about sad things but about interesting ones, so… Jakarta was the first place to see.

The ability to repair is the most important property of the skin that determines the closure of a wound or injury "at all costs". However, healing can be with or without scarring. So what is the secret?

 

 

Buffalo. History of the creation of the custom motorcycle
Buffalo. History of the creation of the custom motorcycle

Day in day, exactly 5 years, in Mikhail Sharomov's custom workshop, we created this unique custom motorcycle named Buffalo with Harley Davidson V-ROD engine. From idea and concept, design and implementation in every technical detail, through years of friendship, creation and inspired creativity to final assembly and registration. About that in my short film "Buffalo".
