That led me to Cytokind, a medical device company that is aiming to get narrowband UVB light devices into the homes of people suffering from such conditions. I had a chat with Cytokind’s CEO, John MacMahon, who generously agreed to an interview. Please see the post at for extensive shownotes.Empowered! is a reader-supported publication.
