Dr. Jordan B. Peterson speaks with the CEO of QOL Medical, Derick Cooper. They discuss how immunological systems confront pathogens and store information, the trait most associated with entrepreneurial success, the complicated patterns of behavior that scale from cellular interaction to metaphysics, and how a spirit of reciprocity can be utilized to uplift the individual as well as the community, society, and upward.
Derick Cooper is the Chief Executive Officer of QOL Medical, LLC, a large, private specialty biopharmaceutical company that makes drugs and biologics for rare diseases. QOL is a commercial stage company founded in 2003 with fully integrated capabilities ranging from sales and marketing to drug development to bioprocess-based manufacturing.

The Company of Eagles was established in 1985 by an Air Force veteran.
The company was re-established under new ownership in 2014 after passing of the founder and his son. The business was left to the son’s life long friend who was there to see the building of the company from the beginning and still uses the same family of craftsmen to create these magnificent emblems. Our promise was, and remains to continue the legacy of the Bergsmann family business. The new ownership has been in the apparel trades since 2004 and combined these two businesses into a single operation. So our offerings are an expansion of available products to better serve the collectors and gift markets. You can always be confident in the quality of products from The Company of Eagles. Thank You, and we look forward to serving you!
