# Overview

JoinCare is an open DeSci incubation network for early-stage biomedical innovation. It connects research teams, scientific and medical advisors, CareAgents, DAO contributors, communities, and Web3 infrastructure through a transparent coordination layer.

Our mission is to reduce friction between scientific discovery and real-world translation. JoinCare combines expert review, AI-assisted research workflows, verifiable contribution records, DAO coordination, and Launchpad infrastructure to support projects from initial screening through long-term incubation.

### Core Functions

* **Project Discovery:** Build a continuous pipeline of early-stage biomedical projects with scientific, social, and incubation potential.
* **Scientific Review:** Assess scientific foundations, translation pathways, principal risks, and project readiness with domain experts.
* **Research Intelligence:** Use CareAgents and DAO workflows to structure research materials, progress updates, and risk disclosures.
* **Community Coordination:** Connect researchers, medical professionals, contributors, developers, and ecosystem partners through traceable workflows.
* **Launchpad:** Provide a participation gateway for projects that meet defined standards for disclosure, community readiness, and compliance preparation.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://joincare.gitbook.io/joincare-docs/overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
