Back to the mission

The evidence leads. You help make sure it's right.

BBO exists because the science behind human connection and communication deserves a wider audience than a journal subscription allows. We need researchers who can help us get the translation right, and who want a public home for the findings.

What researchers get

A public evidence base

Every claim on BBO traces back to published, peer-reviewed research. As the library grows, so does a living map of what is known, what is contested, and what still needs study.

Research micro-grants

As we grow, small grants will fund studies in BBO's focus areas: communication, presence, and skill development in an AI-saturated world. Findings shared openly, not locked behind a paywall.

A community to learn from

Founding members are already sharing what worked and what didn't. That lived experience is a signal researchers rarely get access to at this scale.

If you study communication, presence, leadership, or social cognition and want to see your work reach people beyond academia, we would like to hear from you.
