      Quantified Self is a collaboration of users and toolmakers who share an interest in self knowledge through self-tracking. As a movement incorporating technology into personal data acquisition, it allows for a cheaper, more convenient data collection and the quantification of novel biometrics. I am focused on spotting examples of bad science, sieving the overhyped ideas from these worth development, as well as seeking reliable solutions for the continuous nervous system monitoring.

      Effective altruism is a philosophy and social movement that applies evidence and reason to determine the most effective ways to improve the world. Effective altruists aim to consider all causes and actions, and then act in the way that brings about the greatest positive impact. It is this broad evidence-based approach that distinguishes effective altruism from traditional altruism or charity. While a substantial proportion of effective altruists have focused on the nonprofit sector, the philosophy of effective altruism applies much more broadly, e.g., to prioritizing the scientific projects, companies, and policy initiatives which can be estimated to save and improve the most lives.
