Drug research on Neuroprotective mechanisms in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
This article got a lot of controversy in the telegram group chat. And started a conversation on double publication and either it should be done. The author of this paper “frank” is known by the community, and has reached out to etica protocol community member. The funding would go towards future research on the same subject.
A community member (No body on telegram) has shared this: “It is undeniable that the author of the proposal is respected researcher in leading European university conducting studies on regenerative neuroscience related to CDNF in ALS True pianer in the field. It’s great to start noticing Etica. But for the the community, to ensure Etica’s decentralization, fair voting, and healthy development. We hope that everyone in the community can veto this proposal after careful consideration. Similarly, we hope that the community member who is the author does not feel sad or upset about it. Every one in the community greatly appreciate your support, but we also believe you can understand the significance of our veto. We are all making Etica better.”
Anyways, Etica memeber have the right to vote either way they want, but here is a remimder on suggested guidelines: https://eticaintel.org/2023/11/13/what-is-a-good-proposal-voting-guidelines-for-etica-protocol/

Isolation and societal separation lead to suicidal, self-harm, and other lesser desired mental states creating a serious concern
No IFPS, just a description: “In the United States alone, 153 successful suicides occur each day. Every year 703 000 people take their own life and there are many more people who attempt suicide. Every suicide is a tragedy that affects families, communities and entire countries and has long-lasting effects on the people left behind. This proposal intends to perform the necessary research to understand the true impact to the future of humanity and if this surge in isolation and societal separation will continue as a result of technological advancements such as AI.”
This does not feel enough to get accepted for a proposal. This person should think to redo the proposal with a more precise plan in the IFPS.

Not enough to get funding in my opinion.
