Research Stream

The Research stream supports companies and innovators at any stage to evaluate their technology in the health-care setting, from product discovery to clinical trials. We guide you through the research process, and support the collection of real-world data from patients, clinicians, and other hospital partners to drive evidence-based development of your technology. 

Connecting the dots, from idea to validated product 

We make the research process transparent, and foster collaborations between innovators and health care partners. The Research stream works with innovators to develop and conduct research projects that are scientifically rigorous, ethically compliant, and commercially focused. 

Our services connect the dots for the innovator from idea to validated product. We work with the objectives and needs of the innovator at each stage, and tailor our support to move the product through the Research and Development (R&D) cycle. 

Services that support your research, through your innovation journey

Pre-Study Services 

Pre-study services encompass all aspects of research readiness to ensure that the project is set up for success, including:  

  • Project roadmap development 
  • Qualified investigator identification 
  • Protocol and control document preparation 
  • Communication with Research Ethics Boards/Institutional Review Boards, Quality Assurance teams, and Biostatisticians 
  • Database development, team training, and site initiation 
Study Conduct Services 

The Research stream provides oversight for the conduct of research studies at the health care institution, including:

  • Document control
  • Research team support
  • Compliance preparation and data validation
  • Study close-out
Post-Study Services 

The innovator will receive a final scientific and technical report that summarizes detailed findings, areas for improvement or development, and possible future directions from the research.  

We also work with the innovator and investigators to prepare publications for general dissemination of research findings, including journal manuscripts and lay articles.
