Projects should directly support the mission of DeSci to innovate scientific research by exploring novel mechanisms of funding, conducting, and disseminating scientific research in an open, inclusive, and accessible manner.
The project aims to create an application that fosters mental health within the Web3 space, incorporating decentralized technology for data privacy and potentially offering decentralized psychological services, which aligns with the mission of DeSci to innovate in scientific research inclusively and accessibly.
DeSci projects most commonly support this mission by building and testing necessary technological infrastructure, but projects may also be eligible if they are deploying existing DeSci infrastructure in a scientific research context or if they are educating and recruiting members of the scientific community to contribute to the mission.
Neuroxis plans to build and implement an application on the Arbitrum network which includes technological infrastructure for mental health management, thus supporting DeSci's mission by testing necessary technology in a scientific research context.
Concrete examples of issues covered by the DeSci mission include: the data reproducibility crisis and archaic data sharing practices; misaligned incentives and poor practices in scientific publishing and peer review; financial, linguistic, and academic barriers to globally inclusive research; intellectual property, patents, and financial incentives to trade progress for profits; academic disconnect and poor science/health literacy and trust in the lay public and government representatives.
While Neuroxis addresses mental health and wellbeing, which is important, it does not directly address the data reproducibility crisis, publishing practices, financial barriers to research, or other specific issues listed in this criterion that are central to the DeSci mission.
