DATASK - An Open Collaborative Platform for Science!

[INSERT LOGO ONCE COMPLETED] Want to help find a cure for breast cancer? What about Alzheimers? What about helping an animal from going extinct? For many people there's a desire to help with causes like these. Those people could donate money to the cause, fundraise, or spread the word about the cause they're passionate about. However, what if there was a third option? What if you could directly help one of the causes you're passionate about? That's what our platform aims to be. One where anyone could contribute to the scientific community and be a direct impact on the causes they're passionate about. Further writeup can be found on my Medium post:
