Welcome to Permutations Online Magazine

Creativity in medicine is a foreign concept. “Out of the box” thinking is generally associated with existing healthcare processes, not creative approaches to disease. When it comes to the healing arts, creative decisions at the bedside is how malpractice suits are born.

While creativity is not valued in doing medicine, it is an essential ingredient in thinking about it. Permutations strives to revive creative thinking in medicine. Whether infusing concepts from music and architecture, examining dead theories, or exploring what it means to be alive, the magazine helps the reader:

    • Explore novel approaches to thinking differently about medicine and disease.
    • View today’s paradigm from an “outside looking in” perspective.
    • Incorporate fresh ideas in the “space between the silos of experts.”
    • Escape deeply-ingrained thought patterns that keep us trapped in old ways of thinking
