Contempla.

What is this, exactly?

A quirky, personal newsletter about neuroscience, ethics, and how we learn.

Contempla. is a new iteration of a grad school newsletter I started while in Harvard’s Mind, Brain, and Education program.

New editions this spring. Directly to your inbox.

Why does this exist?

In a time of overwhelming misinformation, rapid technological advancement, and endlessly hurried lives, can we create space for contemplation?

Space to consider what matters most?

What do we know, from the fields of neuroscience, psychology, and ethics, that can help us meet this moment?

What do we, importantly, not know? What might we need to sit with to uncover our own answers?

Can we increase our capacity for complexity, compassion, and collaboration to meet what life is asking of us in these times?

Contempla. is a space for the exploration of these questions and many more. A quirky, human, personally reflective compilation of sources from neuroscience, psychology, ethics, morality, education, and social good.

Interested? Take a look around.

Perhaps experiment with letting something a bit odd land in your inbox on a monthly basis.
