YOUR NEXT RESEARCH COLLABORATOR IS A HUB AWAY. 
An overview of one of the key features of our platform.
BROADCAST HUB
One of the flagship features of our platform is the possibility for researchers to broadcast inquiries toward researchers working on research projects similar to their own or simply toward researchers within the same field of study.
Inquiries are broadcasted within the network through the creation of Hubs. A Hub is basically an exchange dock between researchers sharing a common interest toward a research inquiry.

A Hub is categorized by three main attributes:
Those attributes will determine the Hub's visibility through the platform once it's broadcasted.
- A topic: This would be a scientific research topic. The Hub's author would summarize his inquiry through the topic.
- A field of study: Genetics, Psychology, Biochemistry, Humanities etc...
- An institution: This could be an academic institution (university or college) or a research institution, whether private or public.
Those attributes will determine the Hub's visibility through the platform once it's broadcasted.
Three levels of reach can be defined for a hub:
- Level 1 - Only researchers from the same field of study as the hub’s author can join in and willingly contribute to the inquiry.
- Level 2 - Any researcher from the same institution as the hub’s author, regardless of his speciality or field of study can join in.
- Level 3 - All researchers on the platform can join the hub and start adressing the hub's request, regardless of their institutions or fields of study.
Many research projects are data-driven and the success of the data-intensive experiments associated to those research is determined by the novel data that is generated, more often than not, researchers rely on data scientists to help them make sense of the data at hand. It goes without saying that collaboration is essential to the success of many of those data-intensive research projects.
In other simpler scenarios, a researcher may simply be looking for a specific data sample as part of the research he's conducting. The required data sample may already be available from another on-going research project where the authors are willing to share.
At Sympoziast, we are well aware of the reluctance among researchers to share valuable information with their peers, whether because of security concerns or commercial interests. Our goal is to empower those willing to share non sensitive data with their peers for the advancement of on-going researches in their fields.
