Thank you! Thanks to Ethan and Julia's weekly meetings on clubhouse, I've heard about some of these. Alok's DAO-based funding system seems very promising. I hope that gets traction. I thought I knew more about RareBase, but now I think I'll need to study their site in more depth.
- michaelhoffman 5y agoEthan Perlstein uses ethnic stereotypes to market his company. He opportunistically uses rare disease kids to shield against complaints. I would steer clear.
- halukakin 5y agoI met with Ethan once to discuss potential drug repurposing avenues. Obviously, I understand he is doing this for profit and I hope his company becomes a unicorn one day. His weekly clubhouse meetings are on par with phd level courses, they feel like information coming out of a firehose. His contribution to the community is incredible.

- rronalddas 5y agoHi on a side note, I am curious about how did you get to know that your company was mentioned in this thread? Did the OP reach out to you first? Or did you find this comment while reading HN?
- aloktayi 5y agofor me, I was just perusing the replies and saw that Sri had mentioned us.
- halukakin 5y agoWill certainly do. Thank you Alok!
