Summary:
"To explore new solutions, we need the most talented builders and entrepreneurs to lead. Astera’s Open Science Resident program supports innovators who urgently want to unlock new tools for scientific publishing.
Selected Residents will carry out the first phase of their work in one-year residency at Astera. We will consider a proposed budget of up to $500,000 to cover compensation and resources for the Resident, including other potential teammates. Open science Residents will be eligible to pitch a spin-out organization or company at the end of the year.
In addition to financial support, Astera’s Resident program will also provide guidance for builders as they envision and test actionable, out-of-the-box ideas. We will pair open science Residents with scientists and other advisors who are embedded in research and open science. We believe that learning and building together with these partners will be critical for understanding user needs and incorporating historical lessons...."
