Manage episode 425909676 series 3511671
In this eye-opening 6th episode of Colors of Web3 Fireside Chat series, Lam and Raigal dive deep into the world of Decentralized Science (DeSci). They explore how Web3 technologies are reshaping the landscape of scientific research, funding, and collaboration.
The hosts discuss the current challenges in traditional science, including funding issues, publication costs, and the lack of diversity in research subjects. They then delve into how DeSci is addressing these problems through innovative solutions like knowledge graphs, intellectual property NFTs, and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) focused on specific research areas.
Discover how DeSci is not only revolutionizing funding mechanisms but also promoting more inclusive and diverse research, potentially leading to groundbreaking discoveries in fields ranging from longevity to women's health. This episode offers a glimpse into the future of scientific research and its potential to create a more equitable and efficient system for advancing human knowledge.
