For the first time on The Red Light Report, I had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with a photobiomodulation researcher and expert. And Dr. Praveen Arany is not just an average, ordinary researcher by any stretch of the imagination — this guy has quite the reputation in the photobiomodulation world and beyond. We cover an array of red light therapy topics that will surely give you a clearer idea of what red light therapy is, how to best utilize it and what has Dr. Arany most excited about the future of photobiomodulation.
Dr. Praveen Arany is trained as a dentist and an oral pathologist. He completed a joint PhD-Residency program at Harvard University as a Harvard Presidential Scholar. He has two certificates in clinical translational research from Harvard Medical School and the National Institute of Health.
He has over 100 scientific publications with several well cited papers to his credit. A complete list of his publications on Pubmed is
available here. He is a recipient of numerous awards and has been invited to speak in various national and international forums, reviews for over 50 scientific journals, serves on 9 journal editorial boards.
Besides his academic interests in clinical translational research, Dr. Arany has co-founded three biotechnology companies to translate his lab research into real-world, practical solutions to improve clinical care.vThe overall scientific focus of the Arany lab is to identify key biological regulatory components that can be used in clinical studies to control biological outcomes. His research is predominantly focused on the molecular mechanisms and clinical translation of low dose light treatments, termed Photobiomodulation Therapy, to alleviate pain or inflammation and promote tissue healing and regeneration.
Enjoy learning from one of the best photobiomodulation researchers around — I sure did. And as always, light up your health!
