He served on the national advisory council of the Salk Institute.
He was more recently awarded the Jonas Salk Award (1999) in honor of Dr. Salk, the inventor of the polio vaccine, the AstraZeneca/ASC/RxDx Award (2001) and the CSCC Award (2001) for his seminal work in the field of Alzheimer’s disease.
His interviews with Dr. Jonas Salk, developer of the polio vaccine, Frederick W. Smith, founder and chairman of Federal Express, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Ilya Prigogine and many other trail-blazers, artists, futurists, and scientists were the inspiration for his interest in innovation.
