An execution chain of intellectual responsibility organized around what must not fail.
The Institute is organized around responsibility for outcomes, not position. Roles are defined by what each person is accountable for maintaining conceptual coherence, experimental rigor, translational validity, and clinical interpretability.
This reflects a core operating principle: scientific progress depends on continuity of responsibility from idea to evidence.
Intellectual Responsibility Structure
Intellectual responsibility is assigned by function. Each role carries explicit accountability for a defined segment of the scientific and translational process.
Responsibilities are aligned so that assumptions are examined, claims are stress-tested, and interpretations remain consistent across experimental and clinical contexts. Responsibility does not end at contribution; it extends to the integrity of downstream use.
This design prevents fragmentation of ownership and ensures that critical decisions remain traceable and defensible.
Founder & Field Stewards
The Institute is led by individuals charged with maintaining the discipline’s coherence by ensuring that foundational assumptions, definitions, and boundaries are applied consistently across programs.
Field stewardship includes conceptual alignment, adjudication of interpretive disputes, and responsibility for preserving falsifiability and scientific standards.
Scientific Leadership
Scientific leaders hold end-to-end responsibility for specific programs, including experimental design, interpretation, and translation across biological and clinical scales.
Program leaders are expected to ensure that evidence generated under their supervision is admissible, reproducible, and interpretable within the framework’s constraints.
