#SciX makes research more efficient by linking data, code, and publications, so findings can be tested, trusted, and built on faster. More reproducible science, less wasted effort, more discoveries. #OpenScience #ResearchIntegrity
SNF (Switzerland) restrictions proposed: only 1 concurrent research grant per PI (plus maybe one coop), only 1 proposal per year.

And might even put more emphasis back into the basic research funding (instead of the grant lotteries)?
(Maybe naive, I know, and I have no idea how this would be implemented)
