[DIYbio] Funding Opportunity for DIYBiologists + Community Labs

Hi all,


We just launched a new funding opportunity on Experiment for "Biosurveillance": https://experiment.com/grants/biosurveillance

Experiment has helped launch a number of great DIYBio projects like Open Insulin, and we're hoping to fund a lot more! Details below. Here's a tweet to share, if that's easy: https://twitter.com/davidtlang/status/1368972332069314560

Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Funding opportunity for biosurveillance research projects

Experiment.com just announced a $5k Challenge Grant for "Biosurveillance" projects: https://experiment.com/grants/biosurveillance

If you manage a project that could use some extra funding, especially if you've been hit hard by COVID setbacks, this could be a good opportunity. If you're curious about Experiment, you can read more about the process here: https://experiment.com/how-it-works

Or the Experiment Guide here: https://experiment.com/guide

Some stats that might be useful:

- Projects can take place anywhere, but the person/team must have a bank account in the US, Canada, or UK to receive funding. - Takes ~2 hours to fill out an Experiment project.
- Success rate is 46% (but we expect it to be higher given the $5k in funding to be distributed).
- Average amount raised by a project is $4,120

It's a proportional prize contest, meaning the $5k will be distributed amongst all the participating and eligible projects. You can read more about that on the site.
