The last prize, for the best literature review of spaced repetition, was moderately successful, inspiring a pretty good review of the academic literature on spaced repetition. I am interested in experimenting more with prizes, but I would like to get input other people's input: what are other good topics for future prizes?

Academically researched.
Relevant to being effective.
I am also open to projects besides literature reviews but literature reviews seem the most attractive to me right now.
