I am an academic researcher with broad experience in clinical trials for development of devices, drugs, and biologics targeting indications in paralysis due to spinal cord disorder. This this high-throughput realm of neurotechnologies, and I'm juuust a bit concerned about our obligate contribution to the outside of the doughnut. But we're "saving people", right? And then helping them achieve a life well lived in the context of their altered abilities. That's the inside of the doughnut, isn't it? My situation is not special, but part and parcel modernity's double-bind, these perennial "multipolar traps" inherent to the worldview that most of us are forced to ingress simply in order to participate in the time and place we were born into. I do find my situation to be an opportunity, however, and thus strive to realize the role that disability will play in shaping our post-anthropic futures.
