Episode #101 - An Interview with Dr. Rahul Jandial, MD, PhD

Author: 30/30 Strong June 6, 2019 Duration: 47:45

Rahul Jandial, MD, PhD, is a dual-trained brain surgeon and neuroscientist at City of Hope in Los Angeles, California.

What sets Dr. Jandial apart is his unconventional route to becoming a decorated neurosurgeon. Before finding his calling in the operating room, he was a college dropout and worked as a security guard. As a surgeon, he provides complex surgical treatment to patients with cancer. As a scientist, his laboratory investigates the biology of the human brain. Throughout his career, he has authored 10 books and over 100 academic articles.

In his latest book, NEUROFITNESS: The Real Science of Peak Performance from A College Dropout Turned Brain Surgeon, Dr. Jandialhe pulls together years of research from various fields— surgery, science, brain structure, the conscious mind— and applies them to everyday life for enhanced performance, improved memory, heightened creativity, and much more.


There's a growing space where proven science meets holistic practice, and that's exactly the terrain mapped by the 30/30 Health Podcast. Created by the team at 30/30 Strong, these conversations move beyond the conventional to examine complementary approaches that are grounded in real evidence. Each episode feels like a deep, accessible dialogue, pulling apart complex health topics to find practical strategies for everyday life. You'll hear from a range of voices-clinicians, researchers, and practitioners-who are actively working at this intersection. The discussions naturally weave through fitness, alternative therapies, and foundational health principles, all with a focus on what genuinely works. Tuning into this podcast is less about finding a quick fix and more about understanding the interconnected systems of the body. It’s for anyone curious about building sustainable strength and wellness, who prefers their insights to be both forward-thinking and rigorously supported. The aim is to equip you with a clearer, more nuanced perspective on your own health journey, one thirty-minute conversation at a time.
