Doing a study like this with no funding whatsoever is...suspect at best

I don't know much about the field, so could you please explain how often those kind of papers don't get any fundings ?

[–] IrritableOcelot@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I just mean that its pretty hard to do research with no money at all, and any funding should be reported in that section.
