Skooper is where academic research connections happen. Whether you're a student looking for a supervisor, a postdoc searching for your next position, or a PI building your lab, Skooper matches you with the right people by research field, not by who you already know. How it works: - Tell us where you are in your research journey (PI, postdoc, Master's/PhD, or undergrad) and your research interests. - Get a personal Match Score with supervisors, labs and opportunities that genuinely fit your field. - Browse research labs and open positions, and express interest in one tap. - Connect safely: you approve every connection, and chat opens only when both sides agree. Why Skooper: - Field-based matching that understands your research. - Verified researchers: institutional-email and ORCID-checked profiles. - Private by default: nothing is visible until you're ready, and you approve every request. - Notifications the moment a supervisor wants to connect or a strong match comes in. Skooper is built for the academic world: honest, respectful, and focused on finding the right research fit.
