This Gitcoin grant is generated by the ResearchHub Foundation, which houses the ResearchHub Community and seeks to assist the community in supporting various contributors, hosting scientific educational events/hackathons and community operations.

SciCon 2023: Our annual event, SciCon, was kickstarted in 2022 with the intention of collating various players in Decentralized Science from traditional academics, to DeSci projects and entrepreneurs/investors. You can find the website for SciCon2022 here to get a sense of the event (https://researchhubcommunity.wixsite.com/scicon2022). SciCon2022 was an educational event to inform traditional academics about Decentralized Science, DAOs, and Web3. We hope to take our learnings from SciCon2022 and have a more wide reaching, polished and successful SciCon2023.

ResearchHub Foundation and ResearchHub Platform: ResearchHub's mission is to accelerate the pace of scientific research. The goal of ResearchHub Inc is to make a modern mobile and web application where people can collaborate on scientific research in a more efficient way, similar to what GitHub has done for software engineering. While the core ResearchHub Inc team is busy building a product, the ResearchHub Community focuses on bringing together motivated individuals who are dedicated to the project’s mission of accelerating the pace of scientific research. We are a group of passionate academics who independently support the development of ResearchHub and DeSci through hosting educational scientific events and seminars, and focusing on development of a robust reputation system for DeSci.
