You are welcome! Rethink Priorities (RP) has a research agenda on valuing impacts across species, and Hannah Tookey from RP commented the following on 6 January 2026. “We don’t currently have anything scheduled on this topic [“projects decreasing the uncertainty of interspecies comparisons of expectedhedonistic welfare”], but we regularly review project ideas and may consider working on something like this a little later in the year. Dedicated funding would certainly make it more likely that we could prioritize this work”.
