Networked Thoughts

Reflections on research, science, and the complexity of interconnected systems inevitably lead to the messier realities of academic life: funding that never quite arrives, peer-review processes that test your patience as much as your ideas, the future of science with (or because of) AI, career choices made under various conditions, to name a few. This "blog" is a space to think out loud about all of it, from the intellectual rewards of following a hard question to the structural frustrations that make the life of a researcher and academic harder than it should be.

Everything here reflects only my personal opinions and not the views of my employers, collaborators, friends, and family.
