Would be offered generously/disinterestedly....
Would be volunteered...
Would be offered in an altruistic way...

Most English speakers with good vocabularies avoid the word disinterested for fear of being misconstrued. Most people think it means uninterested.

nice responses, all - it's true, i avoid "disinterested" unless i know i'll
be understood clearly.

ambarina - really like your use of "altruistic" here.

Good options everyone! Here's another:

Se esperaba que el descubrimiento de Watson se brindaría desinteresadamente para mayor beneficio de la humanidad
It was hoped that Watson's discovery would be volunteered — no strings attached — for the benefit of all humanity.
