They got their research idea fully funded in less than a day. Meet @rust_ruslan and Gavin, investigating how microplastics affect brain cells involved in Alzheimer's. Hear how ResearchHub helped them secure funding and start experimenting while the idea was still fresh.

Inspired by @VitalikButerin 's post on airborne disease resilience, @ResearchHubF opened a $10K RFP. The community has already added $2K+ to the funding pool! The RFP is accepting: 💰 Funding pool contributions 🔬 Research proposal submissions researchhub.com/rfp/33131 GIF vitalik.eth @VitalikButerin Oct 27 For anyone getting into biology, please consider taking airborne disease resistance more seriously. It's a super important area of medicine that is a huge cause of death and sickness but easily gets forgotten. We're likely to get many more airborne plagues in the future due to

12 people put up $1,400 for four synthetic genes. Two of them encode DNA polymerases reconstructed from bacterial ancestors ~133 million years back from anything alive today. That proposal is now a published Stage 1 Registered Report. No editor approved it. Funding did. read image description read image description
