Sure, but Rsync and Dropbox are very different. There's really no software option that handles that many small files well with the same features (realtime sync, folder moves, binary diffs, file history, etc).
Rsync is great for taking a snapshot and replicating it elsewhere, which is probably a better fit for research projects anyway.
