My story as a rare-disease patient

Pixel-art portrait of Science Stanley — clean-shaven with spiky brown hair and round blue-framed glasses, in a white lab coat over a deep purple turtleneck with a plain name badge, against a cosmic purple starfield; calm, warm, and welcoming
Pixel-art scene of Science Stanley in his warm lamp-lit laboratory, seated in his manual wheelchair at a wooden desk — waving hello in a white lab coat over a purple turtleneck, a steaming mug and open notebook beside him, shelves of glassware and a corkboard of pinned notes behind; warm, curious, and welcoming

From protein folding to citizen science, here's what the lab is working on.

Pixel-art scene — Stanley smiles inside his darkened lab as a golden lattice of glowing nodes and threads fills the window and walls, a warm desk lamp below
Lattice Protocol

Lattice Protocol

AI-native infrastructure for agentic workflows — federated compute, verifiable science, and composable modules that bridge human expertise with autonomous AI.

Join the Community

Smarter with Science is a network of researchers, patients, and builders organized into small pods. We run Science Sundays, share tools openly, and believe the best science happens when the doors are open.
