YC-Funded Science Exchange: A Central Marketplace For Core Research Facilities

Scientists, get ready for some disruption. Last month I wrote about Quartzy, a nifty startup that's looking to help scientists streamline their labs by making it easy to keep track of who has which reagents (which is actually a bigger problem than you'd think). And today we see the launch of another Y Combinator-funded startup called Science Exchange that's looking to help researchers in a different way: it wants to make it easier for them to conduct experiments on the expensive and sometimes rare equipment housed at universities across the country. And eventually, the company hopes to reinvent the way scientists outsource research in the hopes of making it much more efficient.
