I discovered meditation 15 years ago at a Vipassana retreat in Thailand and since then have been exploring the inner and outer realm with a degree in Psychology and PhD in the neuroscience of consciousness.</p><p>I was planning to become a meditation researcher but became disillusioned with academia, turning toward open science and metaresearch as a pathway to creating new knowledge systems. I founded a collective action platform that uses conditional pledges to motivate the adoption of open science practices (Free Our Knowledge), which I’ve since handed over to a new board. My years of campaigning and learnings in this space led me to develop WISDOM, a radically transparent peer-review framework designed to overcome the collective action problem and incentivise contributions to the commons.</p><p>I co-founded a community and charity to prototype these ideas (Open Heart + Mind), where we’ve been hosting Burning Man-style events and peer-reviewing contributions as a safe analogue for academia and other commons-oriented communities. Through this process we’ve evolved a simple model that can be adapted to diverse use cases and communities, while retaining a common communication layer to facilitate cooperation.</p><p>Alongside my interests in open science and metaresearch, I enjoy singing, dancing, yoga, rockclimbing and snowboarding.</p></p></div><divclass="column left"id=details></div><divclass="column right"id=sidebar><h3>Events in this conference</h3><tableclass=list><tbody><tr><td><divclass="image small"><imgsrc=https://fahrplan.cosin.ch/fahrplan/2024/events/826edbfe-6233-555e-9819-a70e728e5be0/thumbnail_hucf546fd8aee98df40e066d99efadbd6d_2802980_32x32_fit_box_3.pngalt="Event Thumbnail"></div></td><td><ahref=https://fahrplan.cosin.ch/fahrplan/2024/events/826edbfe-6233-555e-9819-a70e728e5be0/>Open review and reward for diverse contributions to CoSin</a></td></tr></tbody></table></div><brclass=clear></div></div><divid=footer></div></body></html>
