Most biotech ideas don’t fail because they’re wrong. They fail because they’re never tested.
In this episode of Proof of DeSci, we dive into Primordia, a new initiative designed to unlock early-stage biotech experimentation through microgrants of up to $3,000.
Joined by Elliot Roth (Biopunk Community Lab), Zoe Isabel Senón, Albert Anis, and Morgan Richards from ValleyDAO., we explore the broken funding gap between idea and execution, why traditional grants and VCs miss early-stage science, and how Primordia is enabling researchers, students, and independent builders to run their first experiments.
We cover:
- Why most scientific ideas never get tested
- How $3K can be enough to kickstart real biotech innovation
- The role of community labs and open science
- What kind of projects Primordia is looking to fund
- How to apply and what makes a strong application
- The long-term vision for decentralized biotech funding
If you’ve ever had a scientific idea but didn’t know where to start, this episode is for you.
