awesome!! i suspect you're familiar with this, too, then, but just in case! dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3272973.3272986 and patientresearchcovid19.com tons of stuff on reddit, too, but in varying degrees of formalization
Inspiration and existing efforts where citizens drive the whole scientific cycle, from problem definition through to interpretation of results. This level of citizen science has been called "extreme" in this paper: link.springer.com/article/10.1140/epjst/e2012-0… I love this term! :) Esp. interested in concepts/approaches that help with the construction and maintenance of local/individual knowledge (vs. aggregates only)
