How Blockchain is Democratizing Science with Sarah Hamburg from Opscientia | Ep. #94



Published
In this episode of the Unstoppable Podcast, we’re talking to Sarah Hamburg, co founder of Opscientia, which is a community owned Open Science ecosystem, essentially an Open Science DAO.

Sarah talks about how she learned about crypto from her brother, Harry Hamburg, and how she first began to join blockchain and science together.

We talk about how Opscientia was born and how it’s developed since the early days, and how Sarah envisages people working together in Opscientia in the future. What’s the long-term vision?

Sarah tells us why she feels it’s so important to democratize science, and we discuss DAOs in general, where things are going well and what still needs to improve. Finally, we chat about the importance of building individual human relationships in the crypto community.
