Their diverse experience and expertise effectively support our small research team."

They also use modern communication platforms that adapt well to flexible work hours and global time zones. Moreover, they are inclusive, adapt to working families, and have a global view. Working with Traverse is a true collaboration."

Kirstie Canene-Adams, PhD | Senior Principal Scientist, Global Scientific and Regulatory Affairs

Our Process

Our systematic review framework leverages the literature to create living evidence. With our reviews, you can substantiate claims, evaluate sustainability, identify key opinion leaders, and drive decision-making with up-to-date evidence.

Scan + Scope

Work with a Traverse consultant to develop and refine search criteria to identify a relevant research question that aligns with your business needs. We use this to establish inclusion criteria that appropriately refine and manage your search.

Screen + Extract

Work with your consultant to co-create a list of variables to extract. Your consultant builds the framework for your database and at least two members of our team independently extract the relevant data from each source.

Compile & Assess

Our system flags disagreements and we collaboratively address conflicts using your variables of interest and the original source as our guide. Your consultant then assesses the body of research as a whole and develops actionable conclusions that are driven by the evidence.

Communicate + Innovate

We create a walk-through of your final database, recommend any other custom solutions you may need, and provide subscription options that keep you up to date and your investment working for you. Your database enables innovation driven by the evidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

We get it! The review process is more time consuming than we give it credit for, and your role at work doesn't allow the big blocks of focused time that review requires. At Traverse Science, our business is structured to handle review efficiently and multiply your capabilities. We work with you to develop rigorous PICO criteria and extract the data that matters to you most, then provide the training and communication you need to use the data to its full advantage.

Information is accelerating - everyone is struggling to keep up! Our systematic reviews help you stay up-to-date by creating a database that makes the body of evidence searchable and shareable for your team (no more struggling to find the right paper in your citation manager), plus we have subscription options that allow your database to be continuously updated to create a living body of evidence. Our process helps eliminate reviewing the same literature repeatedly while seamlessly incorporating new research, so you're always up-to-date.

We love working with teams who already have a solid grasp of the state of the literature! Our reviews help codify and document relevant literature in a single place, making it easier for you to:

Make sure everyone on your team is truly on the same page
On-board new team members to the essentials of your body of literature
Conduct comparative analyses while reducing personal biases
Create messaging that empowers your customers to also understand the literature
Avoid re-reading and re-analyzing existing literature so you can focus on new developments

All Traverse Science reviews include:

A searchable, shareable database of the evidence pertinent to your research question
PICO criteria and search terms used in the scanning and scoping phase
A custom walk-through from our team to teach you how to leverage the database to its full advantage
Custom communication options, including white papers, visualization platforms, and more
Subscription options to maintain your database and create living evidence

Yes, it is! Databases are searchable, shareable, and allow you to directly compare research in a streamlined way. Review databases allow:

Marketing teams to use verified evidence in their campaigns, creating empowered consumers who know that the data is on their side.
Sales teams to leverage evidence with customers to show what the body of evidence says instead of cherry-picking evidence
Research teams to understand gaps in the evidence and routes for innovation
Leadership teams to understand large bodies of research at-a-glance to make big decisions, quick
