We’re interested in supporting novel tools and techniques that may eventually contribute to important breakthroughs.

Medical treatments and other scientific innovations are often possible only after decades of less-publicized progress in developing novel techniques for measurement and manipulation. We support this work understanding that future scientists will build on our progress.

Open Calls for Proposals

We are open to receiving unsolicited short pre-proposals at science@openphilanthropy.org. We try to consider all proposals but are unable to respond in most cases.
