An introduction to decentralized science and LabDAO

ETHPorto 2023 · 17 Mar 2023 · 25:00

Lily Hansen-Gillis introduces decentralized science, or DeSci, and its practical entry point through LabDAO, a project that pools open-source computational biology tools and lab resources under decentralized governance. Speaking at ETHPorto 2023, she covers how DAOs can fund and coordinate scientific research outside traditional institutional gatekeeping, from public goods funding to permissionless access to lab pipelines. The talk frames blockchain infrastructure as a way to make science more open and reproducible.
