Research Mentors & Subject-Matter Experts Part-time NEW

Join Research Decode and Shape the Next Generation of Researchers

Research Decode is an academic collaboration platform built by researchers, for researchers.

We created it to solve a problem we know firsthand:
Brilliant students and early-career researchers often get stuck not because they lack talent, but because they lack access to the right mentors, practical guidance, and real-world research thinking.

That’s where you come in.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re inviting PhD holders, postdoctoral researchers, faculty members, and industry researchers to join Research Decode as Experts.

If you’ve spent years navigating:

• research design
• experiments that didn’t work the first time
• reviewer comments that made you rethink everything
• grants, papers, patents, or real applied research

Then your experience is exactly what our community needs.

What You’ll Do as an Expert

As a Research Decode Expert, you can:

• Mentor students and early-career researchers on real research problems
• Guide methodology, statistics, ML/DL pipelines, wet-lab strategy, or computational workflows
• Support thesis planning, paper writing, revision strategies, and journal selection
• Offer project-based consultancy or short 1:1 mentoring sessions
• Help researchers move from “I’m stuck” to “I know what to do next”

You choose how much you engage and what kind of work you take on.

Who You’ll Work With

Our community already includes:

• 500+ experts from IITs, IIMs, IBM, and other reputed institutions
• 1500+ active students and researchers

People come to Research Decode because they’re serious about research—not shortcuts.

Why Join Research Decode?

• Flexible involvement – mentor part-time, project-wise, or occasionally
• Meaningful impact – help real researchers overcome real roadblocks
• Visibility & credibility – build your academic and professional presence
• Monetization options – earn through mentorship, consulting, or guided projects
• Research-first culture – no fluff, no generic advice, no mass tutoring

This isn’t about teaching slides.
It’s about transferring research judgment—the thing textbooks never teach.

Ideal Backgrounds (Not Limited To)

• Computational biology, neuroscience, bioinformatics
• Machine learning, deep learning, AI research
• Life sciences, chemistry, physics, materials
• Engineering, data science, cybersecurity
• Any field where research depth actually matters

Interdisciplinary thinkers are especially welcome.

How to Get Involved

If you believe research mentoring should be:

• practical
• honest
• rigorous
• and accessible

Then, Research Decode is your platform.
