ResearchHub | Collaborative Platform for Scientific Projects

Project Brief To design a platform for the open publication and discussion of scientific research. Another goal was to design a space where people could collaborate and earn research coins (RSC) for publishing, reviewing, and collaboration. Once earned, RSCs enable users to create bounties, tip other users, and gain voting rights within community decision-making. Role UI/UX designer Method I worked closely with stakeholders to bring this platform to life. Our approach was highly iterative and user-centered. Everything started with launching an MVP and first users. The subsequent iterations were designed and built based on user feedback gathered from a community of scientists using ResearchHub. Results I designed a platform that helps the scientific community and: • Accelerates scientific progress • Lowers barriers to participation in scientific research • Emphasizes the universal communication of science to all audiences ResearchHub is still evolving, and more exciting features are yet to come.
