Research Rendezvous

ResearchRendezvous — Where your data dates Every researcher has a folder full of ideas that never got off the ground — a compelling question with no time to run the study, a rich dataset with no one to analyze it, a half-written paper that deserves a collaborator. ResearchRendezvous (R&R) was built to change that. R&R is a free mobile platform that connects researchers around shared ideas, not just shared institutions. Like a dating app for research, it lets you browse what others are working on, post your own in-progress ideas, and reach out to potential collaborators with a single tap. What you can do: * Explore research ideas, datasets, analysis methods, and applied problems posted by researchers across disciplines. * Post your own ideas in four structured categories: Research Questions, Datasets, Analysis Methods, and Applied Problems — with keywords for discoverability. * Save ideas you're interested in and revisit them later. * Chat directly with researchers inside the app — no more lost emails or awkward conference DMs. * Build your profile with your institution, discipline, and research interests so others can find you. Who it's for: ResearchRendezvous is designed for researchers in the social and organizational sciences, but is open to academics at any stage — from PhD students to senior faculty — at any institution. Why it matters: Cross-disciplinary collaboration is one of the most powerful drivers of scientific progress, but the tools we use to find collaborators haven't kept up. LinkedIn doesn't surface research ideas. ResearchGate shows publications, not possibilities. R&R fills the gap — a purpose-built space for connecting around what comes before the paper. Download ResearchRendezvous and turn your file drawer of ideas into actual research. Built for the research community: Research Rendezvous was built in partnership with the Statistics Lab at CMC. Cards are structured around how researchers actually think: variables and analyses for datasets, software and statistical assumptions for methods, problem context and timeline for applied work.
