camp_biomedical
Foundational biomedical research coalition --- target discovery, mechanism, tool-building. Holds that compounding returns across decades justify sustained public funding independent of near-term product application, and that AI deployed inside this pipeline (protein structure, candidate screening, trial simulation) is suffering-reducing at time horizons longer than capital-extraction framing can price.
