Garry Lineham’s career began in technology and systems engineering, where he built networks, designed architecture, and solved problems through pattern recognition. When his own body began to fail (chronic pain, dysfunction, and years of searching for answers), he applied that same systems lens to human health. He asked a simple question: What if the body is a biological system that can be reprogrammed? After investing over $17.5 million of his own resources into research, clinical work, and self-experimentation, Garry discovered that the missing link wasn’t more information about the body. It was a method to help the body remember how to heal itself. He became an expert in “human programming”: the intersection of movement, fascia, nervous system regulation, and the body’s innate intelligence. The Human Garage Clinic was the first integrative clinic of its time and the first true bio-hacking clinic in the world.

The Microbiome: What We Know So Far

The human microbiome refers to the trillions of microorganisms (primarily bacteria, but also viruses, fungi, archaea, and protozoa) and their genes living in and on our bodies, especially in the gut (large intestine). These microbes outnumber human cells (though the exact ratio is closer to 1:1 than the old 10:1 estimate) and contribute essential functions. Herein, we will present key things we know so far as of 2025-2026.

Born in Morocco, Dr. Sabine Hazan sought a career in medicine and was accepted to medical school based on outstanding research on obesity conducted as an undergraduate. She completed her residency at the University of Miami during the peak of the HIV epidemic, treating extremely ill patients at Jackson Memorial Hospital and in the local jail. After completing her residency, Dr. Hazan became the first woman gastroenterology fellow at the University of Florida. There, she completed a year of research and presented her findings at the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) Meeting. It was at that moment that she was approached by the esteemed Dr. Neil Stollman. He told her that the future of medicine lies in the microbiome.

Following her fellowship, Dr. Hazan returned to Montreal and opened a practice in upstate New York. Then she moved to Southern California, and she started her own clinical trial company, Ventura Clinical Trials, and has been Principal Investigator and Sub-Investigator in over 150 clinical trials. Many of these trials were for Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). When her patients with C. diff did not respond to traditional therapies, she resorted to treatment via fecal microbiota transplant (FMT), which she later coined Refloralization™.

In 2019, she founded Progenabiome, LLC, a genetic research lab whose interest is to understand the clinical implications of the microbiome. Our broad array of specialties allows us to look beyond fecal transplant (Refloralization™) to examine other fields of medicine in which dysbiosis could be the culprit of disease.

The Metabolic Approach to Childhood Illness

This upcoming lecture will explore Dr. Shelese Pratt’s integrative “metabolic approach” to childhood illness, focusing on identifying root causes rather than simply managing symptoms. Topics will include the gut-brain-immune connection, microbiome health, inflammation, and the impact of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections on pediatric wellness. The session will also cover dietary interventions, food sensitivities, blood sugar balance, mitochondrial function, and personalized treatment strategies designed to support immune health, recovery, and overall metabolic function in children with complex or chronic illnesses.

The Potential Role of Stem Cells in Autism

Autism is increasingly understood as a complex condition that extends beyond behavior and involves multiple biological systems, including the immune system, gut-brain axis, inflammation pathways, and cellular health. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising area of research because of their ability to modulate inflammation, support immune balance, and promote the body’s natural repair mechanisms. While stem cells are not a cure for autism, early clinical research suggests they may help address underlying biological dysfunctions that contribute to symptoms in some individuals. This presentation explores the science behind stem cell therapy, current clinical evidence, and how regenerative medicine may play a role within a comprehensive, personalized approach to autism care.
