Abstract
Feeling stuck in a rut, trapped in the repetitive motions of daily life? Imagine if the key to breaking free was already within your grasp, ready to be unlocked by adopting transformative tools and mindsets.
Join us for an enlightening lecture with Jeff Karp, a distinguished professor at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and a dedicated innovator in medical research at Harvard Medical School and MIT. Jeff’s journey from a child struggling with learning differences and ADHD to a scientist and entrepreneur is a testament to the power of unconventional thinking and deliberate action.
Jeff developed a set of innovative tools and processes, which he calls “Life Ignition Tools,” by drawing inspiration from nature. These tools helped him not only adapt and flourish but also led to significant innovations in science and industry. His achievements include co-founding 12 companies, securing over 100 patents, and receiving awards for innovations like a tissue glue that seals holes in a beating heart.
In his new book, “LIT: Life Ignition Tools: Use Nature’s Playbook to Energize Your Brain, Spark Ideas, and Ignite Action,” Jeff shares profound lessons on how to intercept routine patterns and actively think and decide instead of reacting with habitual responses. This lecture will delve into the key principles from “LIT” that helped Jeff overcome learning challenges and transform cutting-edge research into real-world solutions.
Discover how adopting these Life Ignition Tools can help you break free from autopilot, make intentional decisions, and lead a more creative and purposeful life.
