Research Mentor is a communication platform specialising in research-related work. We work with research teams to craft a message for the world. Using Creative Commons licensing means we can give back to the community. We distil complex research into professional and easily understood videos and text to reach young researchers, students and academicians. We share this content on popular social media for free. Our work is verifiable and carries meaningful public outreach impact, whilst leaving the community with valuable content to learn and grow freely. It begins with us, but grows with you.

Every day, thousands of research papers are published and teams around the world collaborate on important work. But as members of the general public, how often do we hear about this unless a juicy breakthrough is made? We believe that to truly value the research being done on our behalf, we must be able to understand it and it has to be visible. And that’s where we come in.

We work with researchers to distil their work into an accessible format. We might focus on a particular project, a laboratory’s effort or the span of a researcher’s career. Either way, our editors work with the researcher to select the information which will appeal the most to you, our readers.

These researchers share our passion for science and research interaction. They really want you to hear about their work and understand its value.

Traditional research publications often have high subscription rates (fees) and use language that assumes a certainly high level of knowledge. We’re committed to breaking down both of those barriers.

Our content will always be free to access and share. We use simple language in our videos to help you understand the notion well.
