Morressier Discovery Hub

Building a Dsicovey Hub for the scientific community

IMorressier is a SaaS platform for the early-stage-research. It provides conference organisers, scientific organisation worldwide and researcher with tools for manage, share research and connect with relevant people in the industry. I was asked to lead the design for a new product area called discovery - with the vision of opening the platfrom to the public and let people discover and access all the scientifc contents hosted on Morressier.

33 Million Research Outputs Are Going Unseen Every Year

Over 33 million early-stage research outputs go unnoticed every year because they are never shared or made accessible—compared to just 2.5 million peer-reviewed articles published annually. The Morressier Discovery Hub changes this by making early-stage research searchable, and shareable.

Profile Verification for Researchers

Users expressed a desire for their profiles to accurately reflect their credibility within the academic community, supported by verifiable achievements. To meet this need, researchers can verify their affiliations through their work email, which is directly linked to their Ringgold ID and associated with recognized academic institutions. This process ensures that users’ professional identities are verified and trusted, contributing to a more reliable and transparent academic network.

Outcome and Results

In the first 3 months after launch, user retention increased by 30%, leading to a total of 5,500 monthly active users with 40% of users clicked on at least one result per search session. 35% of users successfully verified their profiles within the first 6 months, ensuring their affiliations were recognized by academic institutions.
