Psilocybin extends the life of human cells by 50%? A headline that big deserves more research. The paper used one cell line at 100 µM. @rust_ruslan of @KeckSchool_USC asked @ResearchHub to try 100 to 1,000x less. A protocol was generated in 2 hours and we both donated to it!

Fibroblasts help build their own neuronal niche: human cells compact collagen microgels while converting into neurons. Imaging and bulk RNA-seq track the transition. Early rat graft feasibility, not evidence of functional recovery. https://t.co/MyApGM1jMd https://t.co/GZ4jyApQjM

Big news from the NIH Director on women's health research. Excited to hear Jay speak at @ResearchHub SciCon in SF on Dec 10. A lot is moving in science right now

Project update: A few months ago, we submitted a research paper based on this project to a journal (will reveal which journal once accepted) for peer review. In this study, we imposed delays between motor actions and self-motion while participants steered a vehicle to track

The American scientific funding model is on the verge of structural reforms. As this @TheEconomist article highlights, researchers spend an estimated 44% of their time on administrative tasks, at a time when legacy agency funding is heavily cut and increasingly risk-averse. At

How much does the world actually spend on science? 1. US government research funding: ~$99 billion
In FY2024, federal agencies obligated about $47.5B for basic research and $51B for applied research. That's the pool most scientists mean when they say "grants": NIH, NSF, DOE,

ResearchHub's target annual R&D market: $126B 1% of that target segment: $1.3B ResearchHub's current market cap: $10M An incredible discrepancy between the current valuation and the actual addressable scale.

Lots of scientific funding needing upgraded rails!

Reply "@ResearchHub test this" under any post with a scientific claim and we will automatically generate a preregistered proposal you can fund to seek the truth!

A golden age of science is coming AI can do things humans researchers can’t, even in groups. https://t.co/RfN2D9sCrx

Inspired by @VitalikButerin's post on airborne disease resilience, @ResearchHubF opened a $10K RFP. The community has already added $2K+ to the funding pool! The RFP is accepting: 💰 Funding pool contributions 🔬 Research proposal submissions https://t.co/PqzoXN5wA9 https://t.co/9ks9tPU89R

Large language models detect methodological errors that human peer review misses in clinical trials Happy to be a part of this exciting study led by @rust_ruslan 🤠 I am far from a true expert on LLMs, but I have to admit that LLMs are way more adept at reviewing the https://t.co/tzAiI9U1e1

Science organizations are either embracing AI or keeping it out of their workflows. @ResearchHub is leaning into AI for writing and reviewing funding proposals, as a complement to human experts, not a replacement.

Lots of debate this week on whether journals should ban AI in peer review. We actually tested this in our new preprint, and the results were pretty clear to me. For context, I've reviewed for most of the big journals and evaluated 1,000 human reviews as an editor. I love to https://t.co/eS64b3tOOf

Agree. Coding is getting solved fast, discovery is the hard part 🔬 That's why I like what @ResearchHub is doing, funding real research questions like the airborne disease RFP that's open right now
