| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, this is Erwin Rafael McManus, and this is the Mind Shift podcast. I'm here |
| 0:04.0 | without my partner, Aaron McManus. We're going to dive in with a friend of mine, Dr. Victor |
| 0:08.2 | Ursula from Costa Rica. We're going to talk about mental health, or physical health, and how |
| 0:14.9 | to drink from the fountain of youth. I was a part of an incredible place called RMI in Costa Rica, and they took me through |
| 0:24.6 | some processes with plasma replacement and stem cell therapy, and I wish I could explain all the |
| 0:32.2 | nuances, but that's why I have Victor here with us today. Victor, it's so good to have you. |
| 0:37.4 | Likewise, it's a pleasure to be here. Thank you for having me. |
| 0:40.3 | You know, Victor, one of the things that I've had the pleasure and privilege of experiencing is you from both sides. |
| 0:48.3 | You're a reconstructive surgeon and also you started RMI and I'm not sure of the technical language of all that |

| 1:34.3 | around 15 or 17 years ago and then we decided to bring the project to Costa Rica. |
| 1:41.2 | I was the person who pushed the law for stem cells to be approved as a therapy |
| 1:47.2 | in Costa Rica. This is around 11 years ago, 10 years ago. And then we started RMI and opened our doors |
| 1:57.5 | to patients around four and a half years ago, more or less. |
| 2:01.5 | So this is a little bit of the story. |
| 2:02.8 | I have done multiple fellowships in this segment in genetics and genomics and in cellular |
| 2:08.4 | engineering. |
