One $50k grant? That seems like a tiny amount for possible fix to such a big problem.
- fathyb 4y agoIt's a POC grant, more money should get unlocked if it succeeds. Smaller grants means more grants and more research (hopefully!).
- jeppester 4y agoBetter have 20 projects get a grant of $50.000 than one project getting $1.000.000. It's a way of not putting all the eggs in one basket.
