Dr Mithu Storoni is a Cambridge-trained eye surgeon and neuroscience researcher whose work focuses on how the brain produces its best thinking — and why so much of modern working life interrupts it. She qualified in medicine at the University of Cambridge (MA, MB BChir), became a member of the Royal College of Ophthalmologists, and completed a PhD in neuro-ophthalmology at University College London in 2012. She has practised as an eye surgeon and conducted research on the neural systems that govern attention, stress, and cognitive performance. Her second book, Hyperefficient: Optimize Your Brain to Transform the Way You Work (2024), draws on cognitive psychology, neurophysiology, and clinical medicine to argue that the industrial-era workday is fundamentally mismatched to how knowledge workers actually think. It was named the Financial Times Business Book of the Year 2025 and a Financial Times must-read business book. Her first book, Stress Proof: The Scientific Solution to Building a Resilient Body and Mind (2017), distilled findings from more than five hundred peer-reviewed studies into a working manual for resilience; it was published by Penguin Random House and Yellow Kite. Mithu writes the AI Mind series for Newsweek and her work appears regularly in TIME, Harvard Business Review, Financial Times, Forbes, Bloomberg, BBC, Fortune, Fast Company, The Times, Inc., New Scientist, Big Think, and Entrepreneur. She speaks on mental performance, the cognitive consequences of artificial intelligence, and chronic stress to executive leadership teams, finance and investment audiences, healthcare bodies, and major business conferences. She is represented for literary work by Andrea Somberg at Harvey Klinger Inc., New York, and for speaking by Jayme Boucher at the Hachette Speakers Bureau.
