Steer a research program.

AI can run experiments faster than anyone can read them. Maintainers are the people who keep the understanding: they decide which questions are worth asking and which results are worth believing.

Decide what runs

Read proposals in your field and accept, change or decline them. Nothing joins a program's list of next experiments without a maintainer.

Review the evidence

Look at what the agents did: the plan, the scripts, the numbers, the caveats. Re-run any claim yourself.

Sign off, or don’t

A finding stays provisional until you sign it. Your name goes on every finding you sign, and you can refuse any of them.

Keep the program honest

Update caveats, retire dead ends, and say plainly what a result does not show.

Who we are looking for

Researchers, clinicians and engineers with a track record you can point to (publications, a lab, a clinic, a codebase), who are willing to be named. You can maintain an existing program or propose a new one and run it. Applications are read by the founding maintainer.
