zeekayandHanzo Dev dced1dcfb9 Publish under the org, not a person
Bylines, paper authorship, correspondence addresses and the founder blurb under
each post named an individual. They name the organisation that published the
work instead: the brand on posts and pages, the research byline on papers, and
research@ in place of a personal address. Both are what these repositories
already used elsewhere — nothing new was coined.

Co-authors are untouched. Where a paper named someone else alongside, they stay
named; only the one byline changed. Bibliography entries, running heads,
PDF metadata and affiliations move with it, so a citation still resolves to
whoever the cited paper names.

Sample and fixture data uses the placeholder name these tests already use
elsewhere, so no assertion changed meaning.

\begin{abstract}
Science is broken in ways that scientists have documented for decades: irreproducible results (\textgreater 70\% failure to replicate across fields), funding concentrated in a handful of institutions, data locked behind paywalls and proprietary silos, and credit attribution that rewards journal prestige over actual contribution. We present \Zoo{} Network as infrastructure for \textbf{Decentralized Science (DeSci)}---a platform where research provenance is on-chain and immutable, computation is verifiable, data is open by default, funding flows through community governance, and mathematical claims carry machine-checked proofs. The system introduces \textbf{Research Capsules}: encrypted lab notebooks with threshold-gated data sharing and reproducible compute environments, anchored on \IChain{} for tamper-evident provenance. \textbf{ZIPs (Zoo Improvement Proposals)} serve as the governance mechanism for research funding, replacing opaque grant committees with transparent community peer review and milestone-based disbursement from the \DAO{} treasury via \GChain{}. A \textbf{Data Commons} built on \IChain{} \DID{}-authenticated contributions tracks usage receipts and citation graphs, ensuring contributors receive credit and compensation. \AChain{} provides AI-assisted research capabilities: automated literature review, hypothesis generation, and statistical analysis. For mathematical results, we integrate Lean~4 proof verification, creating a chain of formally verified claims that extends from theorem statement to on-chain publication. We demonstrate the platform through conservation science applications---satellite ecology, species classification, and habitat modeling---where \Zoo{}'s existing research infrastructure provides immediate, concrete value.
\textbf{Keywords}: decentralized science, DeSci, research provenance, reproducibility, verifiable computation, data commons, formal verification
