Simon GoedeSimon Lucas Goede was born in 1948 in Westzaan, The Netherlands. He studied Chemistry at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam for two years and received his MSc in micro-electronics engineering from Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands, in 197. After mastering the complete scope of advanced mathematics while pursuing his education in nano-electronics engineering, he worked in the micro-electronics and telecommunication industry for 20 years. After his retirement, he studied the endocrine system with respect to the physiology of the thyroid, pancreas, and adrenal glands. He published seven papers related to the hypothalamus-pituitary-thyroid system based on his knowledge of systems theory. The results of these clinically verifiable publications are applicable to the treatment of patients with thyroid disorders. This holds particularly in those with primary hypothyroidism through the elucidation of their individualized homeostatic euthyroid set points which guide optimized medication dosage. Besides thyroid systems research, the author is involved in modeling the glucose/insulin and the adrenal systems where the same modeling principles have been successfully applied. Read More Read Less
