Catalyst NYC: Funding the Future of Science
Hosted by ResearchHub Foundation · Co-hosted by Nucleate and Cure
The institutions and models that have long governed scientific research are being reimagined, and the most consequential conversations are happening now. Catalyst NYC brings together a carefully selected group of researchers and funders for a substantive, high-signal day of dialogue about what's working, what needs to change, and where the opportunities lie.
The program features keynotes, panels, and dedicated networking throughout the day, covering topics including alternative funding models, open science infrastructure, translational research, and the emerging organizations building a new ecosystem for scientific progress.
Who's in the room
Attendees span research science, venture and philanthropic funding, biotech, and scientific institution-building.

Agenda coming soon
ResearchHub is an open-access platform co-founded by Brian Armstrong and Patrick Joyce to accelerate the pace of scientific research. The platform reimagines how science is funded, evaluated, and shared, featuring a peer review marketplace where preprints are reviewed openly and in real time, with reviewers compensated for their expertise via ResearchCoin (RSC). Through a preregistration-based funding model, anyone can directly fund rigorous, reproducible science, with all results published transparently.
The ResearchHub Foundation stewards the mission behind ResearchHub. With a focus on long-term sustainability, it oversees the ResearchCoin (RSC) token economy, editorial and peer review programs, and a growing global community of researchers and funders committed to making science faster, more transparent, and more reproducible.
