About

Hosein Kouros-Mehr, MD, PhD is an author and physician-scientist who has spent over two decades in cancer research and drug development.

Thanks to his background, Hosein recognized the extraordinary ramifications of a recent scientific discovery: the default mode network (DMN), which encodes the human ego and influences our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Recognizing the profound impact of this breakthrough on self-understanding (both from clinical and personal experience), he wrote "Break Through: Master Your Default Mode and Thrive" to help readers master the DMN and live happier, more fulfilling lives.

Hosein is also the author of two futuristic novels, "Extinction 6" and "Project Bodi: Awaken the Power of Insight," that explore the inner workings of the mind. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife and children.
