Title: Crowdsourced research science utility token seeking early investors Post by: Collaboration-Nation on February 12, 2018, 09:45:42 PM Hello bitcointalk!
According to The Lancet, the global biomedical research economy operates at 85% waste - over $200,000,000,000 of scientific funding is squandered annually. Scientific research is in a "replication crisis" where over 50% of preclinical research is not replicable. The academic research funding environment is extremely competitive - over 60% of STEM PhD holders are unable to find academic research positions. Academic journals are mostly for-profit companies that are great at making profits. We were founded by an American medical student who left a PhD program in molecular biology due to the bleak economic climate of research science. We have an MVP application and have already partnered with an academic institution in the US to host their internal research. We are currently seeking early investors for our utility token that financially incentivizes contributions to the global research community. Please reach out if you are interested in supporting our mission of open-access, transparent, equitable research science.
