Scienceroot
UPIK05INTRODUCTION
The aim of Scienceroot is to create an ecosystem in which one of the scientific community around the world will be able to collect funding, interact, discuss research ideas, collaborate and eventually publish its work to More efficient, intuitive and transparent platform.
Join a network of scientific cooperation, create a unique profile, connect with other colleagues and demonstrate your research.Are you a graduate student in need of a candidate position or a job? You need to fund your research and do not know what grants you can get.The Scienceroot portal provides a full index of all international research grants, funding opportunities and scientific works.Each article sentence will be printed with a timestamp on scienceroot blockchain to create a consistent archive of open access to all scientific articles.
Why Scienceroot
The current system of attaining funding, collaboration, and publishing findings is outdated and inefficient. Scienceroot aims to leverage the decentralizing power of blockchain technology and incentivizing power of cryptoeconomics to solve the biggest problems with the status quo.
Challenges in the scientific landscape
- Limited access to research output. Knowledge is controlled by centralized companies and scientific discoveries are kept behind paywalls.
- No rewards for the authors or reviewers.
- Reproducibility crisis. Results confirming established information are rarely published, increasing thus the concern over the reliability of the scientific reports.
- Wrong incentives; where you publish has become more important than the actual publication itself.
- Only successful results are published. Even though failure is a necessary part of making progress, null hypotheses and negative results are rarely shared within the scientific community.
- Fractured platforms only addressing limited needs within the scientific community.
Scientific Ecosystem
Unique Currency
We will create our own cryptocurrency, Science Token, which can be exchanged instantly, regardless of the user’s location. This makes it much easier for both the global scientific and non-scientific community to get directly involved in promoting science by investing their money in a worthy cause.
Unique Identities
By integrating projects like ORCID and ResearchID with our Blockchain Platform we can ensure an immutable persistent digital identifier that can be integrated within research workflows like grant submission, research walk-through, manuscript submission and much more.
Immutable Archive
Every article submission will be time-stamped on our blockchain to create an immutable open access archive of all scientific articles. No single individual or group will have control over the system and all information will be clearly accessible to everyone.
Rewarding systems
We will establish an incentivizing mechanism for peer-reviewing and a rewarding program for the authors of scientific papers. Every half a year we will be ranking the top cited articles and the authors will be rewarded accordingly. Readers will also be able to reward authors if they find the articles useful
Collaboration Platform
Join our Scientific Collaboration Network, create a unique profile, connect with fellow peers and showcase your research.
Create your own scientific repository and team up with others to experiment and share ideas.
Are you stuck on something or just need access to a specific tool to test your hypothesis?
Be part of our incetivized Q&A forum and decentralized scientific marketplace. Use your expertise to the benefit of others and get rewarded.
Funding Platform
Are you a graduate student in need for a PhD position or a job? Do you need to fund your research and don’t know which grants you can access?
Our funding portal lets you access a complete index of all international research grants, funding opportunities and scientific jobs.
If you didn`t find anything, you could submit your proposal to the power of the crowd via our own scientific blockchain-funding mechanism.
Blockchain-based grants will be easier to configure, track and distribute.
Publishing Platform
Every article submission will be time-stamped on our blockchain to create an immutable open access archive of all scientific articles.
No single individual or group will have control over the system and all information will be clearly accessible to everyone.
We welcome journals willing to adopt blockchain into their platform by integrating our decentralized publishing framework.
We will support the publication of failed hypothesis and negative results. This way, researchers can pick off the work from a different perspective, therefore sparing time and resources.
