HOW DOES OPEN SCIENCE DB WORK?
Open Science DB aims to create a centralized database of scientific research performed at research universities and institutes across the country. Scientists at leading research universities/institutes contribute summaries of their own or other's research papers to our database. Each summary is reviewed by our volunteer editors before added to the database to ensure accuracy and accessibility of the content.
Our Process
1. Researchers contribute summaries of their own publications or someone else's publications.
2. Our editors review the submitted summaries to ensure accuracy.
3. We post the contributed summary to our database and also post them on our Facebook and Twitter accounts to reach a wider audience. We also send out these summaries to appropriate industry professionals who might be interested in commercializing the technology.

MEDICAL RESEARCH DB
In this section, we publish summaries of research papers that study human diseases. Research papers are grouped into two categories: Drug Discovery and Fundamental.
'Therapeutic Discovery' category papers discuss:
What papers CAN NOT be added to Medical Research database?
BASIC RESEARCH DB
In this section, we publish summaries of research papers that aim to advance scientific theories and form the basis of scientific progress. This section includes all basic science disciplines including climate research, ecology, geology, chemistry, physical sciences, and others.

In this section, we publish summaries of research papers that study human diseases. Research papers are grouped into two categories: Drug Discovery and Fundamental.
'Therapeutic Discovery' category papers discuss:
- Successful or failed testing of a new therapeutic agent or intervention tool using an in vivo animal disease model. Ex) Compound X (or antibody against Y, siRNA against Y... etc.) has/has not shown to slow down the progression of a disease in rodents.
- Discovery of new therapeutic uses for existing drugs.
- Study that has not tested a new/existing molecule using an in vivo animal disease model.
- New data that expand our fundamental knowledge of human diseases/disorders. Ex) mechanisms of disease, structures and mechanisms of drug molecules, disease relevant pathways, or disease relevant molecules.
What papers CAN NOT be added to Medical Research database?
- Any types of confidential, proprietary, unpublished, not peer-reviewed information and materials.
- Press-releases are not considered "peer-reviewed" and should not be submitted.
