I am interested in designing systems to support social communities engaged in Life Sciences research. Broadly distributed and diverse research teams will need tools to provide more than simply data aggregation.

More than a spreadsheet, more than a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) or merely a frame around storage. An active environment that analyzes and finds broad connections between research efforts and the stories behind the numbers. Social intimacy, ambient intimacy. Ultimately creating connections between people and their research.

A Ponte Vecchio of ideas and community.
