Bio Protocol launches OpenLabs for human and AI-led science funding

The DeSci platform links five coordination layers and plans to route USDC vault yield from Morpho and Aave into project computing and simulation costs.

Summary

Bio Protocol has launched OpenLabs, a DeSci (decentralized science) coordination layer designed to help human researchers and AI agents turn scientific ideas into funded projects. The platform is structured around five connected layers and plans to use a USDC yield-based funding model in which returns generated from audited vaults such as Morpho and Aave would be directed toward computation and simulations. Bio said the principal is intended to remain in a risk-free posture while the yield supports project activity.

Terms & Concepts
  • DeSci: Decentralized science using blockchain-based coordination
  • USDC yield-based funding model: Funding system that uses returns on USDC holdings
  • vaults: Onchain pools that deploy assets to earn yield
