empower research, enrich diversity
Improve research impact
“Researchers from under-represented regions often have difficulties formulating their research, and increasing the scope and geographic coverage of their research… Science-i helps me overcome this obstacle.”
Greater worldwide connection
“There is a saying in Africa that what makes one rich is not physical money, but people connection…Science-i provides opportunities to collaborate… and connect with people at different levels… and is revolutionary in science.”
Increased diversity
“Science-i supports every scientist to express their own vision and share their experience in large-team collaborations.”
Stronger research collaborations
“Science-i helps me get more data, know more experts, and be involved in more collaborations around the world…”
We are an international research hub hyper-converged with earth-observation data, global expertise, and advanced cyberinfrastructure to accelerate science, by empowering underrepresented communities in global research and knowledge co-production.
We provide three foundational services to empower research and enrich diversity:
One-stop shopping for all collaboration activities, including manuscript revision, group discussions, polls, and instant messaging with the entire team or a particular author
Empower biodiversity sciences with our unique global forest database, artificial intelligence tools, and Purdue’s Anvil – one of world’s most powerful supercomputers.
Service to under-represented and under-privileged scientists and communities worldwide to ensure that our science is GLOBAL in scale, and LOCAL in relevance
As of June 2022, we have 375 resident scientists with a diverse array of expertise spanning from forest science to science publications.
Since 2016, Science-i, together with partner consortium GFBI, have empowered 500+ scientists from around the world to publish in top scientific journals, including scientists from 22 countries in Africa and South America.
