The EcoDev research team of the Ethereum Foundation has launched a research scholarship, and applications are now open

ChainCatcher news, according to the official blog, the EcoDev research team of the Ethereum Foundation has announced the launch of five six-month research fellowship positions, which are now open for applications. This fellowship provides participants with the opportunity to deeply explore underdeveloped Ethereum application scenarios, identifying potential obstacles and driving factors that may affect their development. The Ethereum Foundation invites researchers, developers, community members, and professionals from other industries to apply by submitting background information and a one-page research proposal, looking forward to receiving innovative ideas focused on emerging Ethereum application scenarios that should: substantially and uniquely benefit from Ethereum's capabilities; focus on application scenarios that can create positive outcomes and real-world benefits; and have not yet received significant attention or in-depth exploration within the Ethereum ecosystem.The fellowship focuses on researching broader, underexplored application areas rather than specific products or pre-commercialization development. Proposals for incremental improvements in areas that have already received ample research and funding support, such as automated market makers (AMMs), lending protocols, digital art, collectible intellectual property, prediction markets, domain names, etc., will not be accepted.Fellows will receive a monthly stipend to support their work; they are required to submit progress reports each month and a final report summarizing their findings at the end of the six months. Additionally, fellows will need to present their work to the EcoDev research team and have the opportunity to share insights at public events.
