Hello everyone, hope you’re doing well!
I’m a rising resident physician in anatomic/clinical pathology in the US, with a background in bioinformatics, neuroscience, and sociology. I’ve been giving lots of thought to the increasingly chaotic and unpredictable world we’re living in…. and analyzing how we can address them at their potential root causes.
I’ve been developing a new theoretical framework to model how social systems evolve into more “chaos” through on feedback loops, perceived fairness, and subconscious cooperation breakdowns.
I’m not a mathematician, but I’ve developed a theoretical framework that can be described as “quantification of society-wide karma.”
Key concepts I’ve been working with:
Interaction Points – quantifiable social decisions with downstream consequences.
Counter-Multipliers – quantifiable emotional, institutional, or cultural feedback forces that amplify or dampen volatility (e.g., negativity bias, polarization, social media loops).
Freedom-Driven Chaos – how increasing individual choice in systems lacking cooperative structure leads to system destabilization.
Systemic Learned Helplessness – when the scope of individual impact becomes cognitively invisible, people default to short-term self-interest.
I am very interested in examining whether these ideas could be turned into a working simulation model, especially for understanding trust breakdown, climate paralysis, or social defection spirals plaguing us more and more every day.
If any of this resonates, I’d love to connect.
Thank you for your time!
