Description
In recent years, it is not easy to secure research funding, and this is a serious problem especially for young researchers. Therefore, we conducted a crowdfunding called Muscle Atrophy Zero Project and received research funding of 2.5 million yen in 2 months. Muscle Atrophy Zero Project aims to do a research about causes, diagnoses, and preventions of muscle atrophy in critically ill patients. In a questionnaire survey conducted by the crowdfunding organization(for all projects), 5% donated due to the attractive return gifts, and about half due to research or project content. We considered Muscle Atrophy Zero Project obtained the understanding for its contribution to the society. Through crowdfunding, we will deepen the understanding in the intensive care field as well as ensuring research funding.
