Raising money for scientific research through crowdfunding.

Rachel E Wheat1, Yiwei Wang, Jarrett E Byrnes, Jai Ranganathan.   

Abstract

In this article we discuss the utility of crowdfunding from the perspective of individual scientists or laboratory groups looking to fund research. We address some of the main factors determining the success of crowdfunding campaigns, and compare this approach with the use of traditional funding sources.
