I am Kunjumon Vadakkan. I was born in Kerala, a southern state in India, in 1964. I started my career as a family physician after my studies (M.B.B.S) at the Calicut University.  In 1992, I started post-graduate studies (M.D) in Biochemistry at the Calicut Medical College. In 1995, I joined the School of Biotechnology at the Jawaharlal Nehru University as a Research Associate of the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research in the laboratory of Dr. Uttam Pati to study negative regulatory areas upstream of the p53 gene. In 1997, I joined Moulana Azad Medical College and the associated GB Pant hospital as a Senior Resident in the Department of Biochemistry.

In 1999, I moved to Canada and started working as a Research Assistant in Dr. Casey van Breemen's laboratory in the Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the University of British Columbia.  I, then moved to the University of Toronto to complete my M.Sc under Dr. Umberto De Boni and Ph.D under Dr. Min Zhuo in neuroscience in the Department of Physiology and Program in Neuroscience. I spent my spare time developing hypotheses of memory storage and examining them theoretically. In 2007, I wrote the first book on the Semblance hypothesis. After a short period of work at the Neurosearch Center (private company, no more exists) at Toronto, I did my postdoctoral training in  Dr. Mark Zylka's laboratory at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA. In 2008 and 2010, new editions of the book on Semblance hypothesis were published. Currently, I am a resident physician in the division of Neurology at the University of Manitoba, Canada.
