On May 26th, John Tomaszewski will explore the profound biological and philosophical bridge between the objective world and our subjective experience. He will examine how the brain doesn't merely "record" reality like a camera but rather constructs it through a complex process of predictive coding and sensory integration. By deconstructing the neural pathways that translate raw physical data into the vivid landscape of our thoughts and perceptions, we can better understand the unique mental frameworks that define our professional and personal lives. John was a long-time employee at Dun &amp; Bradstreet in computers and engineering and served as director of Marketing Information Systems. Since joining Old Guard, he has become deeply interested in AI and using AI chat-bots to explore the mysteries of the world.<figure><img src="https://cdn20.patchcdn.com/users/26763252/20260405/025241/image___05145241019.jpg" id="image.png" data-image="image.png"></figure>John TomaszewskiThe Summit Area Old Guard is a social, educational, and recreational organization that serves men of retirement age.

On June 2nd -&nbsp;Our speaker will be Usman Shah,&nbsp;medical director of GI Oncology at Overlook hospital, Phase 1 trial programs. 
The Precision Revolution in cancer marks a fundamental shift in medicine: we have stopped treating cancer based solely on where it is (the organ) and started treating it based on what it is (the genetic mutation). In the past, two patients with lung cancer received the same "blunt force" chemotherapy. Today, they might receive entirely different treatments because their tumors have different genetic "drivers."His talk will cover a look at the newest tools doctors are using to extend and save lives.<figure><img src="https://cdn20.patchcdn.com/users/26763252/20260507/020833/image___07140832526.jpg" id="image.png" data-image="image.png"></figure>Usman ShahThe Summit Area Old Guard is a social, educational, and recreational organization that serves men of retirement age.
