Scientific Research
Open Philanthropy, 2016
Abstract
Scientific progress has been a major contributor to improvements in human wellbeing, and Open Philanthropy aims to support research that could significantly impact a large number of people. This organization is particularly interested in biomedical research, although its interests are not limited to any particular field, disease, condition, or population. Open Philanthropy seeks to identify scientific research with high potential for impact and insufficient funding from other sources. It also supports high-risk and unconventional science when the potential impact is sufficiently large. – AI-generated abstract.
