UPDATE: So excited to announce our newest program.
Using a 15-week cohort model, goal is help more scientists design the type of ambitious research programs that were critical to advancements such as the Internet or mRNA vaccines.
We plan to do multiple cohorts this year (info below).

Today we launched the Big if True Science (BiTS) Accelerator—an accelerator to train scientists & researchers in designing and executing bold, field-changing coordinated research programs. Powered by our partnership with @aria-research.bsky.social, BiTS will launch its first cohort in Spring 2025.
