Startup Funding Espresso – Research Question Frameworks for Biotech

Research Question Frameworks for Biotech Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. Biotech startups must show the efficacy of their solution. Here are several research frameworks that biotech and medical device startups can use: PICO P -- Population/Problem I -- Intervention/Exposure C -- Comparison O -- Outcome This is useful for quantitative research. Here's an example: Our prosthetic limb (intervention) compared to the competition (comparison) improved mobility by 2X (outcome) for elderly amputees (population). SPICE S -- Setting P -- Perspective I -- Intervention C -- Comparison E -- Evaluation What are the benefits (evaluation) of preventing pneumonia (intervention) for elderly patients with cancer (perspective) in the hospital (setting) compared to no support (comparison)? Finally, SPIDER S -- Sample PI -- Phenomenon of interest D -- Design E -- Evaluation R -- Study Type What are the outcomes (evaluation) of children (sample) undergoing COVID vaccinations (phenomenon of interest) using multiple vaccines (design) in a double-blind clinical trial (study type). Consider using these frameworks to present your results to investors. Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.
