OpenSourceScience offers grants to graduate and undergraduate university students, scientists, and scholars to encourage replication of experiments examined on this website. The awards are administered by OpenSourceScience. Up to eight awards of $1,000 to $5,000 will be granted each year. The awards are intended to fund the direct costs of conducting research and will vary according to the complexity and difficulty of the experiment. For example, we expect to award grants for the first experiment in the $1,000 to $2,000 range.
Applicants should submit a research proposal with a clear description of the methodology and planned analysis, including a description of how the experiment will interface with the OpenSourceScience website. Applicants should also include a budget and a schedule for completion. The best of these proposals will be anonymously published on OpenSourceScience and publicly reviewed by our editors and contributors.
Resumes and/or curriculum vitae should be supplied for the primary investigator and assistants. Student applicants should provide a letter of reference from at least one person who will be involved in supervising and helping with the research. The proposal should discuss additional plans for publication of the work on the Internet and/or in print.
Decisions will be made based on the quality of the proposal, its professionalism, and prospects for providing a useful contribution to the field. Grantees will be expected to provide a research report at the completion of the study and participate in a discussion of their results on the OpenSourceScience website.
