Description
Hello, fellow EAs in the Cambridge area!
-
Whether you're working on your day job or personal endeavours that are EA-adjacent, I believe we can all benefit from in-person coworking.
-
I realized when working in person at Founders inc in San Francisco, my productivity increased by 5 times. The main reason was quick feedback and knowledge sharing.
-
Who am I? (Personal doc, website)
-
I'm Yoyo Yuan from Minerva University and my main interests are neurotech, bio-inspired computing and community building. In the past, I have worked on using swarm drones to collect 3d data, developing a haptic control system for swarm robots and basic brain-computer interface projects.
-
I'm starting a new project within bio-inspired computing while building a collaborative community in neurotech. I just moved to Cambridge from San Francisco and want to know more people locally.
-
I'm willing support your work and give feedback especially if you work in a relevant area.
-
Ideal coworking setup:
- Location: I liked the MIT campus, Harvard Innovation lab and various hackspaces. A good space should have areas for deep work, calling and different activity levels. Looking to explore different spaces!
- Breaks: We can do pomodoro timers with 45 minute focus sessions. You're welcome to nap, take bio-breaks any time with a notice.
- Frequency: Any day of the week for 2+ hours from 11am to 8pm, scheduled in advance.
- Open to format suggestions! - If you're interested: Please comment below, send a private message here or message on X! Include your availability and preferred location, thanks! - Please email or contact @indiraschka on X if interested.
