RESEARCH MANAGEMENT
Conducting research in private practice can be challenging. Staff turnover and busy schedules can become obstacles to completing research projects. We can manage your projects to help your research ideas lead to publication. We offer research mentoring to young researchers and study investigators, providing advice and support throughout each step of the research process.
Secure Online Surveys
Are you sick of having piles of patient data sitting on your desk? Turn your research questionnaires into one high-quality, professoinal online survey.
Ethics & GOVERNANCE Applications
It’s hard juggling clinical work with research commitments, and often ethics applications require a substantial amount of time drafting and revising submissions. We offer support with managing your ethics application, from drafting to following up with ethics committees regarding required amendments.
SCIENTIFIC PresentationS
Have a conference or talk coming up and want to impress your audience with a professional and stylish presentation? Send us your presentation and we will give it a design-friendly makeover in line with appropriate academic formatting. We can upgrade the slide layout and formatting, update your title slide so that it makes an instant impact on your audience, revive your graphs/tables, assist with statistical analyses and review referencing.
Data Collection
A common issue in research projects is missing data due to administrative issues during data collection.
We can help you minimise the likelihood of missing data by:
Establishing protocols for data collection unique to your practice or research setting
Creating electronic databases, with training and implementation support provided
Regular reviews of data entry
Supervision of research staff
