Social justice / advocacy, human rights, environmental health

2024-01-03

My academic background (Ph.D.) is in the biomedical life sciences (molecular biology/genetics), with which I remain current. [1]

My more recent experience is programmatic (programming; data sciences; informatics). [1, 2]

I advocate for universal social justice and equality, environmental protection, and universal human rights. To that end, I created Persagen.com [3] as a self-taught, solo programmer. [4]

That research provides expertise on the history and root causes of contemporary culture wars, conservative politics, and erosions of democracy and civil liberties. [4, 5]

For additional background, please see my cover letter [4] and curriculum vitae [1].

Agreed on self-hosted search. I wrote a post in Feb. 2020 describing localhost installation of searX, which I've using since then as my interface to web searches. At times I revert to Google, e.g. for image searches, but I do that logged out of my Google accounts.
