Add research to your practice without adding a second job
Stryde Research was co-founded by Dr. Dipali Patel, a physician herself, so we built the model we would want. You stay the doctor, we carry the operational load. Every trial is designed to fit a real clinical schedule, not the other way around.

How it works
Start with a 20-minute call with our CMO, Dr. Dipali Patel. Not a salesperson.
Our feasibility team maps your patient panel against active sponsor pipelines in your specialty.
Coordinator, regulatory, quality, and startup, inside your office, on our payroll.
Real-time updates on performance, progress, and upcoming study opportunities.
Returning to research after a few years away?
Many of our best investigators ran trials earlier in their careers and stopped when the paperwork outgrew the reward. The paperwork is our job now. Your experience still counts.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How much of my time will research actually take?
A few defined hours per week per active study, written into the agreement as a number. Eligibility decisions, safety reviews, and the patient conversations only you can have. Anyone who says "almost none" should be distrusted; it is never none. More in the five questions to ask before adding research.
Who employs and manages the research coordinator?
Stryde does. Hiring, training, backup coverage during vacations and turnover, payroll, and quality supervision all sit with us. The coordinator works inside your office but is never your staffing burden.
I ran trials years ago and stopped. Does my experience still count?
Yes, and sponsors value it even when it is not recent. The operational load that pushed many physicians out of research is exactly what the embedded model removes. The restart is faster than you think.
How is physician compensation structured?
Defined per study, in writing, covering oversight, chart reviews, and patient participation, agreed before anything starts. Specific figures depend on protocol and role and are covered on the call with Dr. Patel.
