An honesty rule we hold to
If a team member has no publication record, we do not invent a research identity for them. They are listed by their actual function — Research Associate, Field Coordinator, Data Manager. A real field coordinator is more credible than a fictional researcher, and it is the kind of thing a due-diligence reader checks.
Research associates
We work with a panel of associate researchers and specialists — statisticians, qualitative researchers, health economists, field supervisors — engaged by study according to what the design requires.
This is how a research institute of our size delivers methodological depth without carrying every specialism permanently, and it is how we scale a study up when the design demands it.
To be announced. We will list advisors here once named senior researchers have given written consent to be listed. Two or three senior names transfer substantial credibility to a new institute — which is exactly why we will not create this section speculatively.
We are interested in hearing from good researchers
Researchers, analysts and field professionals who want to work on studies that get used. Tell us what you work on and what you are looking for.
