Biography
Alexander Tsiaras is the Founder, CEO and Editor-in-Chief of TheVisualMD.com. Mr. Tsiaras grew TheVisualMD.com out of his already well-established journalism enterprise. His self-styled journalistic career began in 1972 when, at the age of 19, he co-authored his first book Death Rituals of Rural Greece (Princeton University Press), and went on to Conception to Birth, Architecture and Design of Man and Woman and the InVision Guides to Healthy Heart, Sexual Health and Life Blood. Recipient of numerous awards, including the World Press Award, Webby and the prestigious Satava Award for his work in the improvement of medicine through advanced technology. His work has been featured on the covers of Time, New York Times Magazine, Smithsonian, LIFE and the London Sunday Times Magazine.
Along with being an artist and journalist, he taught himself mathematics and physics and developed his own lenses, including one for a microscope that was used to photograph the first images of human eggs in an in vitro fertilization program. Another lens was used for the endoscope that can photograph the fetus from outside the amniotic sack. The images resulting from this became cover stories for Life Magazine. In 1989 Mr. Tsiaras realized the potential of computer generated imaging and learned UNIX , then C and C++ to write his own programs transferring his knowledge of light moving through physical space to light moving through tissue in virtual space. He was offered an adjunct professorship at both Brown and Yale University Medical schools. Working with Yale he received funding from NASA to write algorithms for virtual surgery, so that astronauts could be cut in robotics pods for deep space flights.
Tsiaras has lectured and keynoted many conferences including the National Library of Medicine (NLM/NIH) Scientific Visualization Conference, TED, TEDMED, Ink Conference (in association with TED), Google Health Conference "ThinkHealth", Medicine Meets Virtual Reality (MMVR) and has lectured with Stephen Hawking at the MIT Media Lab.
Mr. Tsiaras' latest works are, "Conception to Birth" and "TheVisualMD Wellness Program, A Scientific Approach to Losing Weight, Preventing Illness and Reversing Chronic Diseases" eBooks. He has recently built an advanced Personal Health Record, title "MyWellnessStory" that will empower people to plan, optimize and measure their pathways to health and a lifetime of well-being.

Featured Keynote Programs
You're Wellness Story
Wellness and Prevention
In his riveting presentations, Tsiaras shares images and videos from his soon to launch eBook TheVisualMD Wellness Program: A Scientific Approach to Losing Weight, Preventing Illness, and Reversing Chronic Diseases. Tsiaras illuminates the language of the human body through never-before-seen scientific images of the body’s hidden inner conversation. Each of Tsiaras’ talks is a visually rich wellness story, centered on the achievable real-life wellness goals that a person must embrace to live to advanced age with quality of life firmly intact.
Preventing and Reversing Heart Disease
Heart and Cardiovascular
Cardiovascular health is critical to being well, when your cardiovascular system is compromised; the human body is prey to a cascade of other disease conditions. In this program Tsiaras immerses the audience in the cardiovascular system through scans from real human data, showing the development of the cardiovascular system and heart from conception to adulthood. When one has ventured past the point of prevention, he offers a "How To" of healing that one can easily follow, providing tools that empower an individual back to health.
Preventing and Reversing Type2 Diabetes
Preventing Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 Diabetes is a current day pandemic, the number of people afflicted with this condition is on a sharp rise and sadly, many of the newly diagnosed are young children. It needs to be stressed that Type 2 Diabetes is a preventable condition. Tsiaras has spent years studying Type 2 Diabetes, and is constantly confounded by how, in this age when access to information about this disease is so readily available on the Internet, so many people with this condition have no real knowledge of the basic biology of their disease. When you do not understand the disease, it is extremely difficult to understand that there is, in fact, an achievable path back to a healthier condition.
