  3. SCORE program renewed for phase 2

    We’re excited to announce that DARPA has renewed the SCORE program—and the repliCATS project—for a second phase! What does that mean? It means your predictions met accuracy thresholds!

Governments around the world may rely on social and behavioural science research to understand crises and inform policies. Inclusion of COVID claims will ensure that the repliCATS project […]
