How cool would it be if your name became forever attached to a scientific discovery that changes the world? Well, such a thing is now possible thanks to this new site. Petridish lets scientists and researchers post their latest projects online, so that people like you and me can fund them with our own money.
The way this site works, scientists can post as much information as they think would make people become interested in their projects, and then start receiving direct donations. People who crowdfund their projects get everything from naming rights on what’s discovered (or invented), along with souvenirs and exclusive updates on the research that’s being carried out.
This platform is really interesting because it takes something that often comes across as cold and distant as scientific research, and then lets people relate to it more directly than ever.
And there’s no end to the disciplines that are taken into account on Petridish. Astronomy, biology, ecology, geology… projects of every nature can be posted on the site, and they all have an equal chance of getting the support of people in every corner of the world.
