It is six months long with the first two months spent on teaching and the next four on building a project.\n\nOur first cohort kicks off in May and will feature a mix of scientists, web3 developers, AI, zK researchers and more!\n\nIt is aimed at scientists and developers unfamiliar with DeSci who want to solve **big, complex problems in science**.\n\nMuseMatrix started after a realisation that there needs to be **more spaces where web3 developers and scientists have repeated, prolonged interactions so they can cross-pollinate ideas**. Whilst meetups and conferences are good, they are not long nor deep enough to move the needle. A different \u201cspace\u201d is necessary for this. \n\n**This is why MuseMatrix is needed.**\n\nWe are launching our inaugural cohort (an IRL cohort in London and a URL cohort globally) where we will provide teaching, support and guidance to help Fellows incubate core DeSci infrastructure.\n\nSee [here](https://musematrix.notion.site/MuseMatrix-5815d9ebe5d443578b537866f8862a72) for more details about the Fellowship. \n\nApplications are still open so if you are interested in taking part or mentoring the fellows, please see [here](https://linktr.ee/musematrix)\n\nKeep up to date with the Fellow and their progress on our Twitter!", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectTwitter": "MuseMatrix_"}, "recipient": "0x17e4285BeE986aE686504131D3D5ABE0009f297A"}}
