When is it safe to publish something like “this mask might fail because…”? Review the infohazard literature and propose clearer guidance.
Dual-use risk. Some biosecurity work can be misused. Work with an experienced mentor, keep anything you publish high-level, and ask before sharing detailed material.
Researchers either over-share or self-censor useful defensive work. Better guidance helps both problems.
Output: A literature review and practical guidance.
Write your question in one sentence.
Spend 30 minutes finding what has already been written about it.
Collect evidence in a simple table: claim, source, how strong.
Draft 1–2 pages: answer first, then reasons, then uncertainties.
Ask one person to poke holes in it, revise, and share.
All steps done
Share what you made, then try another project. The PDF version has room for notes.
Explore whether AI tools can lower the effort of improving home air quality, or speed up reviewing the built-environment research literature.
A great mask that leaks at the sides protects far less than people think. Make a clear, visual guide to fitting a respirator and the most common mistakes.
AI biology tools (protein design, CRISPR design and more) sometimes publish biosecurity statements. Add new tools to the repository and compare what they promise.
