Description: Platform where academic researchers from around the world collaborate to propose and conduct basic research projects with the support of funding provided by the broader online community. The OSSP hopes to transform how academic research is funded and increase the accessibility of academic research. * Researchers pay a monthly subscription to create and maintain public profiles * Researchers alone (or in teams) submit proposed research studies - each study is peer reviewed, and (if approved) is then posted online * Investors browse through posted studies, and invest in them via small grants (microinvestments). The OSSP doesn''t charge any transaction fees or commissions * Researchers whose studies are funded conduct their research and publish their results It is in the best interest of each researcher to make their case to as many citizens as possible to ensure that they are aware of the work the researcher is engaged in - and of its importance. It is to help academic researchers make this case, and invite the broader non-research community to play a more active role in the academic research process, that The OSSP has developed this unique platform. Through the tools and resources offered by The OSSP, academic researchers may: * Create publicly-accessible profiles * Interact and exchange ideas with peers and colleagues * Manage scholarly publications/bibliographies * Secure research funding (in the form of microgrants provided by the broader non-research community) Simultaneously non-researchers, by registering as ''investors'', may: * Read through cutting-edge (peer-reviewed) research proposals * Interact and exchange ideas with academic researchers * Fund academic research projects
