Biography

Tore Eid, MD, PhD, is a clinical pathologist and NIH-funded researcher based at the Yale School of Medicine. His work primarily focuses on the diagnosis and monitoring of conditions such as multiple myeloma, addiction, neurological disorders, and metabolic endocrine disorders through analysis of blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid. Dr. Eid's research has unveiled important insights into the chemical mechanisms driving brain disorders, particularly epilepsy, where he identified a deficiency of the enzyme glutamine synthetase as a significant contributor to the condition's development. He is also dedicated to advancing minimally invasive health monitoring by discovering biomarkers in easily accessible biofluids like saliva and sweat for real-time health assessment across a variety of conditions including mood disorders and cancer. In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Eid plays an active role in education and community involvement, contributing as an associate editor and peer reviewer in various medical and scientific forums.
