Carboncopies Foundation

The Carboncopies Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to advancing research and development toward whole brain emulation (WBE), a technology aimed at preserving and restoring brain function by reverse-engineering biological brains to functionally emulate their neurobiological processes on different substrates. The foundation operates as a volunteer-driven international network of scientists and engineers, facilitating and conducting interdisciplinary research in neurobiology, brain imaging, computational neuroscience, and related fields. Carboncopies also provides due diligence services for investors and press on brain interface and neurotech startups. Their mission includes building scientific collaboration networks, publishing reviews, maintaining R&D roadmaps, and engaging the public through educational events and materials. The foundation is positioned as a leading organization in the emerging field of WBE, emphasizing rigorous scientific methods, ethical considerations, and broad societal benefits.

The workstreams in question are

The Translation Study Group (focused on translation from data to model parameters)
WBE roadmapping justification
WBE roadmapping success criteria
WBE roadmapping methodologies
WBE ethical framework

Responsibilities / Duties

Literature research and compiling reference lists
Proofreading / editing preprints for publication
Preparing documents or slides for meetings and workshops
Participating in R&D events, publications, and other R&D activities
Preparatory work for R&D events such as workshops, conferences, retreats
Vetting candidate team members

Qualifications (The following qualifications and/or experience aren't required but would be helpful for you in taking this role)

Participation in early-stage work of a new startup
Designing, documenting, setting up experiments
Management or internship work in a research lab

1 hour weekly organization meeting
