RESEARCHERS
Postdocs & principal investigators
Peer review is tougher than it was. Your analysis needs to be watertight, reproducible, and written for a sceptical audience.

01 · Methodology
The right test for your data
We pick methods that match your data structure and research question — not the ones your last advisor used.
02 · Reproducibility
Every analysis is documented
You receive an annotated script, a versioned dataset, and methods text written for peer review.
03 · Communication
Numbers, said plainly
Effect sizes, confidence intervals, and uncertainty — explained so reviewers and stakeholders both nod.
WHAT WE DO
Six services. One throughline.
Every engagement starts with your question and ends with documentation a reviewer can defend.
Research Design
Protocols, power calculations, pre-registration, and IRB-ready documentation.
From
£920
Statistical Modelling
Mixed-effects, Bayesian, longitudinal, and structural equation modelling.
From

Publication-ready figures in ggplot2, matplotlib, or D3 — to your journal's spec.

WHO WE ARE
A doctoral research collective.
A core team of PhD and Master's-level researchers in Political Science, Economics, Econometrics, Statistics, Data Science, and Finance — working with collaborating scholars in Medicine, Social Sciences, Ecology, and Business Administration.
Formed at Istanbul University and Marmara University. Built on open-source infrastructure and genuine belief in reproducible, transparent research.
We conduct research and advise clients in four languages: English, Turkish, Arabic, and Spanish. Academic deliverables are produced natively in all four.
“We started as researchers. We still think like researchers.”
We apply the same standard of evidence to what we say about ourselves as we apply to your analysis.
