Abstract:
In an era marked by scientific stagnation, Decentralized Science (DeSci) challenges the inefficiencies of traditional funding and publishing systems. DeSci employs blockchain technology to address the misalignment of incentives in academic research, emphasizing transparency, rapid funding, and open-source principles. Centralized institutions have been linked to a deceleration of progress, which is acutely felt in the field of longevity science-a critical discipline as aging is the #1 risk factor for most diseases. DeSci proposes a transformative model where decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) facilitate community-driven funding, promoting high-risk, high-reward research. DeSci, particularly within longevity research, could catalyze a paradigm shift towards an equitable, efficient, and progressive scientific future.
摘要:
在一个以科学停滞为标志的时代,分散式科学(DeSci)挑战了传统资助和出版系统的低效率。DeSci采用区块链技术来解决学术研究中激励措施的错位,强调透明度,快速融资,和开源原则。中央集权机构与进展减速有关,这在长寿科学领域是一个至关重要的学科,因为衰老是大多数疾病的第一危险因素。DeSci提出了一种变革性模型,在该模型中,分散的自治组织(DAO)促进了社区驱动的资金,促进高风险,高回报的研究。DeSci,特别是在长寿研究中,可以催化向公平的范式转变,高效,进步的科学未来。
