What is Research Operations?

The shared support that lets research happen responsibly and repeatedly, like recruiting and payments.

What you learn

Make the support every study needs someone’s job.

When it helps

research logistics take over researchers’ time, or studies keep facing the same delays.

Use it at work

  1. List the support every study needs.
  2. Find what nobody owns, and what’s slowest.
  3. Name an owner and a standard process for each.
  4. Measure how long studies wait, and keep improving.

Your output

List the support every study needs: recruiting, consent, payments, tools and storage. Name an owner for each, and fix the slowest first.

Watch for

Leaving recruiting, consent and payments to each researcher, every time.
