In recent years, citizen science, a collaborative research project between experts and citizens (non-experts), has been emerging as a way for citizens to participate in scientific research. Also, crowdfunding, which is the process of raising research funds from citizens via the internet, is getting a lot of attention. In this talk, citizen science and crowdfunding for scientific research will be introduced with an overview and examples, and the differences between Europe and the United States and Japan, especially the current situation and issues in Japan will be discussed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u25c7<\/strong>Organizer<\/strong><\/p>\n B\u2019AI Global Forum, Institute for AI and Beyond at the University of Tokyo<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n \u25c7<\/strong>Inquiry<\/strong><\/p>\n Hiroki Kato (PhD Student, Graduate School of Interdisciplinary Information Studies, the University of Tokyo)<\/p>\n tyychr-3h[at]g.ecc.u-tokyo.ac.jp (Please change [at] to @)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u25c7BAIRAL\uff08B\u2019AI RA League\uff09 BAIRAL (B\u2019AI RA League) is<\/p>\n
