Community and engagement: the values that drive #SciFund
The second round of #SciFund Challenge ends on May 31 and I am just amazed at how well we are doing. 23 of 75 projects have hit their funding targets, with many remaining projects within striking distance of their goal. What gets me excited about #SciFund though isn’t the money.

Most of the community stuff takes place behind the scenes, but I thought I would let everyone in on the secret!
