Initial research fields

Each field page includes keywords, research statement snippets, profile signals to check, and links to related countries and universities.

Field discovery

Field pages should teach users how to search beyond keywords

Most users begin with a broad field like machine learning, public health, or bioinformatics. A strong page should help them narrow that field into methods, application areas, datasets, and profile signals.

That makes the page useful before the product pitch and makes the ResearchMate CTA feel natural rather than forced.

  • Explain the field in plain language.
  • Show common keywords and methods.
  • Give example research statement snippets.
  • Link to related countries, universities, and outreach guides.
