The report, Meeting the Climate Emergency: University Information Infrastructure for Researching Wicked Problems from CNI Senior Scholar Donald Waters, underscores the urgency and complexity of climate change and other #WickedProblems that impede human flourishing and offers concrete steps by which universities could adapt their research infrastructure to address these problems more effectively.

When it comes to #WickedProblems, there are no solutions, just ways to make them less worse.
Hi folks! 
I am Ranjith (he/him), a #CognitiveScience #researcher 
Currently designing #experiments based on #behavioral #GameTheory at the #DataScience and #AI Lab, Department of #ComputerScience, New York University AbuDhabi #NYUAbuDhabi #NYUAD #UAE (remote contract).
Previously worked as a #Research Associate at the Department of #Neurology, National Institute of #MentalHealth and Neurosciences, #Neuroscience #NIMHANS #Bengaluru, where I investigated the role of #Bilingualism and #Education in delaying the onset of #dementia.
Prior to that, I was in the #Language and #Cognition Lab at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, #IITKanpur #IITK #UttarPradesh, where I worked in the areas of #VisualPerception #Psycholinguistics (Visual Word Recognition).
I hold a Master's degree in Cognitive Science from the Centre of #Behavioural and Cognitive Sciences #CBCS, University of #Allahabad, #Prayagraj and a Bachelor's degree in #Electronics and #Communication #Engineering from Anna #University, Chennai, India.
Before receiving my master's degree, I was in the third cohort of International #Fellowship in #Health #Technology #Assessment #HTA at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, #IITMadras #IITM #Chennai.
I love #data, #theory, and bringing both together. I am interested in raising awareness of dementia. I also like to engage in #SystemsThinking and #DesignThinking to better understand #WickedProblems.
I am passionate about #equity, #diversity, #inclusion, and #SocialJustice.
I am #Indian 
by nationality, my family is from #TamilNadu, #India and I grew up speaking #Tamil at home. I am comfortable speaking in 
#Malayalam and #Hindi.
Excited to be here! 
Nice to e-meet you everyone
I recently migrated to spore.social, so here's a new #intro post.
Some of my primary interests include:
#systemsthinking #systems #systemicdesign #sustainability #circulareconomy #degrowth #steadystate #wickedproblems #complexity #inequality #ClimateChange #climate #politics #reading #writing #arithmeticnotsomuch #editing #gardening #composting #cooking #baking #workshops #facilitation #socialinnovation #socialenterprise #hiking #biking #nature #wandering #introduction
As this seems to be more like a true community, and I am looking forward to meet all of you, a brief intro to myself.
In '95 I compiled my 1st SuSE kernel and at the end of the century I had the pleasure to maintain the infrastructure for Caldera Linux DE operations - meeting amazing people like Olaf Kirch,
John Terpstra and many others.
Spent much time in infrastructures around the globe, from Japan and China to Finland.
Got some fun experiences with critical infrastructure and now I am CISO for the government, trying to make society a bit of a safer place for us.
Besides that I turned to social science, why is it that tech doesnt help us? And why do people tend to ignore security?
Therefore I did research at the Hasso-Plattner Institute on system theory (socio-technical systems and complex adaptive systems) and wicked problems.
Besides that I am lecturing at a University and try my best to help others - doing "good karma" workshops for journalists, schools, kids with special needs, etc.
Long story short, looking forward to meet all of you
Seems a list of primary interests is in order.

I'm sure more will come to mind, but this is a solid base. #introduction
