Research Pathfinder Announces October 8 Launch Date

With scientific research facing budget cuts and staffing gaps, Research Pathfinder connects research teams to experts to keep scientific discoveries moving.

WILMINGTON, DE, UNITED STATES, October 1, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Research Pathfinder, the marketplace built by researchers for researchers, announced today that its official launch will take place on October 8. Research Pathfinder connects Principal Investigators, universities, hospitals, core facilities, and funders with vetted independent research professionals across methodology, biostatistics, data science, medical writing, regulatory support, and more.

“Today is about momentum. We are announcing our launch date and setting the stage for what comes next. Researchers need trusted people quickly, and our job is to remove friction so the community can do its best work. At the same time, widespread layoffs in science and technology mean there is a wealth of highly trained scientific freelancers ready to contribute. I want to thank our development team and the beta testers who helped us get here. Their hard work, innovation and feedback made this possible and we are excited to see how the community shapes what comes next,” said Steve Whiteside, Chief Operating Officer at Research Pathfinder.

What to expect at launch
• Open sign up for Project Owners and Independent Research Professionals
• Project posting, workflows and AI search tools for rapid matching of experience and project needs
• Vetted profiles that highlight study experience, methods, and toolchains
• Collaborative workspace systems for scoping and kickoff
• Early partner onboarding for institutions and core facilities

“As a physician and a scientist, I’ve seen research projects lose momentum without access to the right expertise. That is why we built Research Pathfinder. Research Pathfinder is more than a platform, it’s a new way of doing science. By removing barriers and accelerating collaboration, we can speed discoveries that change lives,” said Dr. Alexis Ogdie, physician-scientist at Penn Medicine and Chief Executive Officer of Research Pathfinder.

Too often, research slows down because teams don’t have the right people in place, contracts take too long, or networks are too limited. Research Pathfinder changes that. We connect researchers to trusted talent quickly and create a smoother way of working together so more time goes into breakthroughs that change lives.
