How DeSci uses tokens, IP-NFTs, and DAOs to fund and own research.
Decentralized science (DeSci) is a movement to change how research is funded, published and governed using public blockchains, DAOs and token incentives. Its premise is that a research community can fund work directly, hold a stake in the results, and publish them openly without a grant committee or a journal standing in between.
The pages here cover how DeSci funds research, the DAOs that fund and govern it, the IP-NFTs that turn research rights into on-chain assets, decentralized publishing and peer review, research data ownership, the reproducibility crisis, and DeSci on Radix. The ecosystem section profiles the organizations doing the work, from VitaDAO and Molecule to ResearchHub.
The following 8 pages are in Decentralized science.
