Scientific research can also be done in a spirit of open collaboration.This allows for greater n numbers, as data can be aggregated from a large number of researchers. This leads to more reliable results.
Another application of open collaboration to scientific research is allowing people to contribute processing power to computing for scientific research. Rather than have a supercomputer crunching numbers in a lab, thousands of people's personal computers around the world can be used. This has been very successful at helping calculate how proteins fold — see http://folding.stanford.edu/
