==Short Biography==
 
About Moss no sufficient biographical documentation is to be found, not even on his own homepages. What appears is a BA diploma of New York University in 1965 (field of studies unknown) and an MA degree of Stanford University in 1973 where he attained a PhD in Classics. But Moss is no physician and therefore he has no degree in medicine, no MD. But on various German language homepages he wrongly figures as a doctor of medicine.

Moss claims to have been Assistant Director of Public Affairs of the renowned Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center between 1974 and 1977. This fact, however, is called in question by critics pointing to documents where he is only referred to as a “science writer”. Moss describes his job as follows: ''Officially, my job was to write one article per month for the centre’s newsletter, as well as various press releases and the research section of the annual report.'' He was dismissed from the MSKCC for “failing to properly discharge his most basic job responsibilities.” The full reason of his dismissal came to the fore when Moss appeared at a press conference of amygdaline adherents and accused his employer of suppressing studies advocating the use of [[Amygdaline]] (Laetrile). As a matter of fact MSKCC studies had disputed any effectiveness whatsoever of Amygdaline.
