Ideas take time to unfold. They demand space to breathe, evolve, and connect in ways that short-form content simply can’t accommodate.

This page is a collection of the deep dives, narrative essays, and thought experiments I’ve written as part of The Connected Ideas Project (TCIP) - a platform dedicated to exploring the co-evolution of technology, policy, and humanity.

Each essay is a thread in a larger tapestry, an attempt to bridge the gap between where we are and where we’re heading. You’ll find perspectives that move across disciplines - biotech, AI, and deep tech along with public policy, speculative futures, and more - because no idea exists in isolation. The world is a network of interconnected forces, and understanding that requires long-form thinking.

Explore the Essays:

  • 📖 Shock Doctrine in the Life Sciences → How worst-case thinking in biotech fuels panic-driven policies that stifle innovation and delay breakthroughs, and how we break free of it.

  • 📖 Science Fiction as a Policy Medium → How imaginative storytelling in science fiction illuminates future possibilities and pitfalls, shaping policy decisions and sparking innovative solutions, and how we harness that power to guide real-world progress.

  • 📖 Future Pieces → More on the horizon very soon…

    • [NatSec Biotech] - How Biotechnology is Reshaping Global Power

    • [Weaving the Future] - How AI, Biotech, and Robotics are Redefining Humanity

    • [The Algorithm Will See You Now] - The Evolution and Impact of AI in the Life Sciences

    • [Gaps in My Resume] - How Career Gaps Redefine Success in the 21st Century

These are not just articles - they are invitations to think deeply, challenge assumptions, and engage in the kind of discourse that shapes the future.
