The survey we conducted during Phase 1 revealed that the DeSci community wants more clarity and communication about what these projects are doing, to make it easier to follow their work and collaborate. There is also interest in knowing more about the demographics of each project's team members, including gender, age, professional background, nationality, etc. Additionally, respondents requested more information on how to collaborate and receive funds, as well as a way to measure DeSci's impact.\nTo address these concerns, we launched phase 2, which consists of a new survey that aims to identify the number of active DeSci projects, their focus areas, achievements, organizational structure, funding, and demographics of the team leadership. We will also conduct a network and cluster analysis to identify potential relationships between projects and explore opportunities to share resources.\nIn the upcoming phases, we plan to attract investors, students, and experienced researchers from outside the web3 space. To do this, we'll need to conduct more precise research on market fit, funding models, and how to build bridges between DeSci and traditional science.\n\n", "hidden": false, "question": "Describe your project in a few paragraphs (ideally including a problem statement, solution, roadmap, and timeline for implementation)", "questionId": 7}, {"type": "paragraph", "answer": "We provide data from DeSci projects to foster collaboration between teams, helping to understand the current needs and challenges of the DeSci ecosystem.", "hidden": false, "question": "How does your project support the mission or goals of DeSci?", "questionId": 8}, {"type": "paragraph", "answer": "This round's funds will be used for publishing and distribution of the results of our phase II study.

Support will go towards our current focus of publishing and promotion of the results of Phase 2 of our project. Phase 1 (completed) analyzed the impact Gitcoin Round 15 crowdfunding had on the DeSci ecosystem.\n\nPhase 2 (just finished) expands our work to all DeSci DAOs and is focused on mapping out operations, objectives, milestones, technological infrastructure, community, and funding options.\n\nPhase 3+ (future focus) will build off of our current work to explore more specific social data, DAO growth trends, and other aspects desired by the DeSci community.\n\nFor further elaboration on our work: \nPhase I - Completed \nThe results of a survey from talentDAO and DeSciWorld shed light on the impact Gitcoin Round 15 crowdfunding can have on decentralized science (DeSci) organizations and ecosystem development. We explored these projects and what they achieved using the funds received. Check the results here: https://mirror.xyz/erinmagennis.eth/rSAHHVavkVHVqrKsp9C0w-GScJzKcJMnGxYBw0IrQUg \n\nThis was the first phase of the DeSci Landscape Analysis, which aims to understand what the decentralized science movement is and what impact it has on the scientific ecosystem. \n\nPhase II - Just finished\nWe surveyed around 50 DeSci teams to expand our understanding of the DeSci ecosystem.  Our analysis includes quant and qualitative data about areas of focus and recent milestones, funding alternatives, Web3 use, partnerships, and operations. \nThe results will soon be published in an open-access journal. We'll also present insights in another report and posts in X.\n\nIf successful, we could allow cross-pollination between projects and attract new students and researchers to the decentralized science ecosystem. All results will be published accessible to everyone so we can include new voices to further discussions about DeSci. In GR18 we got enough funds to cover our operational costs (thank you all \u2764\ufe0f). The funds we raise in this round will be used for publishing and promotion of this study in events like science congresses or web3 events.\n\nTeam: Carolina Menchaca (https://twitter.com/gingerheart86)\n\nErin Magennis (https://twitter.com/erinmagennis)\n\nFrancisco D\u00edaz (https://twitter.com/0x_FranciscoD)\n\nDr. Lukas Weidener (https://twitter.com/lukasweidener)\n\nA joint effort between talentDAO (https://twitter.com/talentDAO_) and DeSciWorld (https://twitter.com/DeSciWorld)", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectTwitter": "DeSciResearch"}, "recipient": "0x36E750E77aC558148Df704d6D5ed67292113077B"}}
