Welcome to The Gameful Scientist

Science and gaming. Odd match? I promise you it’s not.

In this newsletter, we’ll explore the intersection of these two fields, reimagine how discoveries are made, and invite everyone to participate in the scientific process.

Each week, I bring you insights, ideas, and thoughts on the intersection of bio and games through conversations with experts in the field, including scientists, game developers, players, and founders.

We'll cover a variety of topics, including:

  • Discovery games for collective intelligence

  • Sandbox-style games for “build-to-understand”

  • Human-bio interaction for biotic games

  • Game as a medium for storytelling

  • Technology, ethics, and companies

The articles in The Gameful Scientist are organized into three categories:

  • Levels: In-depth explorations of specific topics

  • Side Quests: Personal ideas or an “ask” from the community

  • Checkpoints: Reflections and feedback on progress and direction

I write this newsletter not only to share my passion for the topic but also to clarify my own thoughts. It's a way to delve into the topics that inspire and challenge me.

Join me in this exploration and be part of a community reimagining scientific discovery.

Enjoy :)
