Often scientific research faces hurdles like enormous data size, instrumental and computational limitations. Our aim is to involve enthusiastic volunteers from the public to help us with data analysis. It will also enable implementation of policy of the Department of Science and Technology (DST) on Scientific Social Responsibility (SSR), which aims to strengthen the link between science and society.
- Citizen science is the practice of public participation and collaboration in scientific research.
- Through citizen science, people share and contribute to data monitoring and collection programs.
