The applicant's work on open-source tools (e.g., TOPOLOGIX, neurocascade, psyche-twin) aligns with NGI Zero's focus on open protocols and trusted infrastructure. However, the funder's recent rounds skew toward protocols/identity/governance, and the applicant's neuroscience/pharmacology focus may be less directly relevant. The LMIC angle and independent researcher status are positive but not a strong thematic match.
