Research Experience

Biodiversity & Environmental Psychology

I led the design and deployment of NatureBuzz an app designed to understand the connection between subjective well-being and biodiversity. Our goal was to provide the foundation to advise landscape management policies. This environmental psychology project was a collaboration with Cambridge Zoology Department and Cambridge Conservation Initiative (CCI). 

Open IP Policy research: iMED Project

Funded by the Rockefeller Foundation, Project iMED proposed an alternative funding model for medicines, in order to optimise both worldwide access to life-saving drugs. While today, when we purchase medicine, we pay simultaneously for the cost of innovation (very expensive) and the cost of production (very cheap), the Remuneration Right Fund model proposed to separate the 2 streams, thus optimising pharmaceutical innovation and allowing anyone to access the medicines they need. 

Cambridge Yoga & Well-being study

While working at the Cambridge Prosociality and Wellbeing Lab, at the University of Cambridge, I led a 6-week randomised controlled trial, including 200 participants, seeking to understand the impact of yoga on healthy adults' well-being. The results have been published in the journal Psychosocial Intervention

Social Well-being: a White Paper 

Life Itself is a think-tank working at the intersection of ancient wisdom traditions and modern science. The Research Institute exists to create a shared vocabulary that enables the discussion of inner life on matters of public importance. 

Cambridge Policy Research Group 

I supported multiple research projects related to cooperation, trust and the perception of tech. See publications.
