The eLife Innovation Sprint is a two-day challenge for developers, designers, technologists and researchers to collaboratively prototype new innovations that bring cutting-edge technology to open research communication.
Through the eLife Innovation Initiative, we have been working to improve research transparency and accessibility, and accelerate discovery in the life sciences, by developing open-source technologies in collaboration with the wider community. We have heard many excellent ideas for transforming how the latest science is shared, built upon and recognised, and we want to create a space that would help translate these ideas into action.
By bringing ideators, creators and users together for the Innovation Sprint, we hope to provide space, time and access to diverse skill sets for the community to develop their ideas into prototypes and forge new collaborations.
We invite you — whether change maker or web wrangler, UX champion or data tinkerer — to apply to participate in person.
Applications are open to anyone aged 18 or over. Applications will close at 9am GMT on March 5, and we aim to communicate the outcome of each application by March 23.
