Tell us about a clinical problem you'd like to investigate. We'll send you a two-page study concept.

No commitment. Just a starting point.

We review submissions manually before generating your concept. Expect a response within 48 hours. We won't share your email or add you to a mailing list without asking.

The Problem

Research administration shouldn't take longer than the research

Paediatric studies have unique requirements: consent from parents, assent from children, and communication that works for families. Most research software treats these as afterthoughts.

  • Months writing protocols instead of doing research
  • Juggling REDCap, DocuSign, survey tools, and email
  • Generic software that frustrates families and increases dropout
The Solution

One platform built for child health research

Elixir was built specifically for child health research. Our software generates study documentation, manages recruitment, and collects data directly from families, all in one place.

  • Ethics-ready first draft in 15 minutes
  • One platform: consent, data collection, and recruitment
  • Family-tested interfaces that parents actually complete

Real research improving outcomes for children and families

Hearing in Early Childhood

Recruiting

Targeting the diagnostic gap: Using parent-recorded audio at home to detect hearing impairment in 3-4 year olds before it affects speech and language development.

Cholestasis Detection

Recruiting

Targeting the Kasai window: Using smartphone images of infant stool to identify biliary atresia and ensure babies reach surgery before day 60, when outcomes are significantly better.

Chronic Cough in Children

Recruiting

Reducing unnecessary investigations: Phenotyping cough audio at the point of care to distinguish wet from dry cough and guide appropriate management without unnecessary antibiotics or chest X-rays.
