This project, sponsored by the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, recommended ways to increase collaboration among researchers through the use of incentives. Using focus groups and interviews with faculty and students we identified the obstacles they face in their research, as well as the incentives that would motivate them to do more. Based on this we have proposed gamification techniques and incentives to strengthen the use of a new online research collaboration platform at Financial University.
