What experts have said about Scientific funding system
1 statement · 1 positive
Scientists should receive funding wherever they conduct meritorious research.
“If they're at a university, we should fund them. If they're at a focused research organization, we should fund them. If they're on their own in the garage doing incredible work and can pass a merit based review panel, we should fund them in their garage.”
