Scientists are raising funds on @ResearchHub to test whether the Wim Hof Method is safe and potentially beneficial for cancer patients.
So, we went and interviewed @Iceman_Hof himself. We asked him about breathwork, cold exposure, and what science still hasn't explained about his method.

Our pipeline for science funding, publishing, and tracking is working. Here's the proof:
AGEs are sugar-damaged proteins that accumulate with age and drive chronic disease, yet remain largely untargeted. @Stanford researcher @KejunYing raised $10k on @ResearchHub to address this.
The project will design 10,000 AI-generated proteins and screen top candidates for binding to AGE-modified proteins. A first test of whether de novo protein design can target glycation damage.
The project is now posted as a Stage 1 Registered Report in @RHubJournal, where progress will be tracked openly in real time.
Our pipeline takes scientists from proposal → funding → peer review → registered report → results. All in public, all on ResearchHub.

Yesterday marked 30 days since we launched Endowments on @ResearchHub.
Here's where things stand after one month:
→ Total Funding Credits Issued: 780,486 $RSC (~$122k at today's price)
→ Today's Annualized Yield: 70.08% (yield issued in Funding Credits)
→ Total Value Locked: 3.54M RSC ($2.11M at today's price)
In just one month, Endowments has enabled ~$122k in new science funding. That's serious progress.

The current hantavirus outbreak raises an important question: how prepared are we for the next viral pandemic?
We're offering $10K in funding *right now* on @ResearchHub for studies exploring antiviral strategies, with particular relevance to hantavirus and the broader Bunyavirales family.
Traditional funding channels can take months or years to respond to emerging threats. We think science funding can and should move faster.

New Funding Opportunity on @ResearchHub: 🦠
We're offering $10K in seed funding for research on antiviral preparedness, with particular emphasis on studies related to hantavirus, emerging threats, and the development of new broad-spectrum antivirals.
Science must move faster than traditional channels allow. One of our core goals at ResearchHub is to help science respond rapidly to developing events. So, we're deploying funds to the research areas that need it most.
Applications are open now. Here's what we're looking for: 👇

On July 11th, @ResearchHub is partnering with @NucleateHQ and @Cure345 to host Catalyst NYC, a day of open dialogue between researchers, funders, and institution-builders reimagining how science works.
The program will cover alternative funding models, open science infrastructure, translational research, and more.

Project Gigabrain has a winner. 🧠
We received 16 proposals aimed at growing bigger and more realistic brain organoids.
We're sending $25k to @jdpereira's lab at @UABHeersink to grow spatially patterned human brain organoids.
By modeling the regional patterning seen in the human brain, Dr. Pereira's work can make brain organoids more realistic models for studying neurodevelopment and disease.
Top-ranked by our editorial team.
Perfect 5.0 expert peer review score.
