Platform
One research record, from idea to impact.
MRB is a research operating ecosystem, not a collection of separate apps. Every project has one structured, longitudinal record that carries its documents, versions, decisions and outcomes through the whole lifecycle.
The principle
Enter once, reuse everywhere.
The same structured research information is reusable across modules: title, objectives, study design, investigators, institution, population, endpoints, ethics status, documents and milestones.
A protocol written for the thesis becomes the ethics submission. The approved study defines the data forms. The completed project becomes the indexed thesis, the manuscript and the grant application. Nothing is typed twice, so nothing drifts out of step.
How it works
Six steps, one record.
- Create the project and its team
- Build the protocol in structured sections
- Review and approve by role
- Submit to ethics from the same record
- Execute, capture data and track milestones
- Index, publish and carry the work forward
The lifecycle
Twelve stages MRB is designed to connect.
Availability differs by stage. Each solution page states which modules are core today and which are planned.
- Discover
Identify research gaps, topics, questions and unmet needs.
- Design
Build the synopsis or protocol, methodology, CRFs, data plan and statistics plan.
- Review
Faculty and guide review, scientific review and iterative corrections.
- Govern
Ethics submission, review, meetings, decisions, continuing oversight and archival.
- Execute
Project tracking, recruitment and data capture, milestones, documents and monitoring.
- Analyse
Data quality, statistical analysis support, dashboards and results.
- Complete
Thesis or dissertation completion, institutional repository and indexing.
- Publish
Convert research into a manuscript, select a journal, submit and track publication.
- Fund
Discover grants, assess eligibility, build proposals and track awards.
- Innovate
Identify IP potential, incubate ideas and connect to experts and funders.
- Validate
Move promising innovations into clinical validation and hospital-based evidence.
- Scale
Connect suitable work to clinical trials, registries, real-world evidence and policy.
Shared across every module
The platform underneath.
Roles and organisations
Users belong to an institution and see only the projects, documents and actions their role permits.
Workflow engine
Configurable steps, approvals, assignments, deadlines and state changes across thesis, ethics, publication and grants.
Documents and versions
Structured templates, uploads, version control, approval status and archival.
Notifications and calendar
Reminders for deadlines, pending reviews, meetings and milestone actions.
Audit trail
A timestamped record of who created, edited, reviewed, approved or changed key data.
AI assistance with traceability
AI output shows its source context and needs human confirmation for consequential decisions.
Analytics
Dashboards for users, departments, institutions and programs, with role-appropriate measures.
Search and indexing
Find projects, topics, theses, publications, grants and experts.
Integrations
An integration framework planned for literature, institutional systems, identity and trial systems.
AI in MRB
AI-assisted, never AI-decided.
AI helps people prepare and check their work. It does not approve research, and it does not replace the judgement of a guide, a reviewer or an Ethics Committee.
Data & security overview- Suggestions for topics, structure and completeness, shown with their source context
- Consistency checks across protocol sections and documents
- Questions flagged for reviewer consideration
- Every suggestion can be accepted, edited or rejected by a person
- Consequential decisions require human confirmation
