Our Philosophy OpenMedBed.org is built on the principle that true progress in science and health comes from open, transparent collaboration. We believe that knowledge—especially knowledge with the potential to benefit humanity—should not be locked away behind paywalls, patents, or private interests. 1. Open Source, Open Science We release our research, designs, and software openly, so anyone—regardless of background or resources—can learn, contribute, and improve on what we’ve started. Mistakes, improvements, and breakthroughs are best made together, in the light of public scrutiny and shared insight. 2. Transparency Over Hype We value reproducibility, careful documentation, and honest reporting over buzzwords and marketing. Every experiment, observation, or theory on OpenMedBed.org is intended to be as transparent and accessible as possible—so others can build on (or challenge) our work. 3. Human-Centered Research Our goal is simple: To advance tools and knowledge that can improve the health and well-being of real people. We believe research should serve people—not markets or egos. 4. Global Community, Not Competition OpenMedBed.org welcomes contributions, corrections, and new directions from anyone—regardless of credentials, country, or funding. There is no “us vs. them.” There is only the open pursuit of understanding. 5. Accessibility and Empowerment By making our work freely available, we hope to empower the next generation of experimenters, clinicians, and curious minds. No one should be left out of scientific progress because of economics, geography, or privilege. This project is an ongoing collaboration, and all code, documentation, and hardware designs are credited to OpenMedBed.org. No individual authorship—just the commitment to open research and collective benefit. Join us, contribute, or simply follow along. The future of scientific discovery is open.
