Overview
Citizen Science and Open Experimenters is a community powered initiative that accelerates open, reproducible research and transparent experimentation. This page supports ongoing work that makes tools, data, and processes accessible to researchers, educators, and curious minds around the world. For Citizen Science and Open Experimenters, donations fund core development and inclusive outreach that expands participation beyond traditional labs.
Our aim is steady, measurable progress: build open validation workflows, publish reproducible protocols, and grow a network of volunteers who contribute ideas, bug reports, translations, and documentation. By supporting the project, you join a collective that values clarity, accountability, and broad participation in science and experimentation.
