A science futures market

David Jones

Nature, 1997, vol. 387, issue 6635, 763-763

Abstract: This week, Daedalus proposes the setting up of a science stock exchange, to put science on “a sound capitalistic basis”. He proposes that university departments could issue shares in their research programmes - researchers would issue prospectuses, and competing shareholders would talk up projects they had backed, or criticise ones in which they had a ‘stag’ position.
