About Us

A working philosophy built on scientific accuracy, transparency and responsibility

msCRO | Medical Statistic CRO is a corporate consultancy brand providing professional scientific support to physicians, academics, clinical researchers and healthcare research teams in clinical research, biostatistical analysis, medical writing and SCI/SCI-E publication processes.

Since 2008, our core approach has been to treat every study not merely as a technical analysis, a text edit or a publication submission, but as a holistic research process that demands scientific responsibility. For this reason, in every project we act on the principles of honesty, transparency, academic ethics, methodological accuracy and responsibility towards the researcher.

msCRO’s working culture means more than simply “delivering the job.” What matters to us is structuring the entire process — from a study’s hypothesis to its data structure, from the analysis plan to the academic text, from journal selection to reviewer revisions — in a scientifically defensible, consistent and reliable way. Each study is evaluated in its own context; shortcomings are stated openly, strengths are developed, and the scientific value of the research is presented as accurately as possible.

This understanding was shaped by the academic and professional background of our founder, Hüseyin Candan, in biostatistics, data science and clinical research methodology; over time it has evolved into a corporate working system with the contribution of professionals from different fields of expertise. At msCRO, every project is carried out based not only on individual experience but on teamwork, shared expertise, quality-control processes and scientific standards.

When building our team, alongside technical competence we prioritise academic ethics, a sense of responsibility, attentiveness, diligence and a commitment to scientific quality. Each of the experts we work with is competent in their field, carries the rigour that research processes require and meets msCRO’s quality standards. We do not continue working with approaches that fail to meet our standards, because we are aware that behind every project there is a researcher’s effort, an academic goal and a scientific responsibility.

The working philosophy we have maintained to date is reflected in the trust-based collaborations we build with researchers, the positive academic feedback we receive during publication processes and the long-term working relationships across different disciplines. At the foundation of this trust lies not only the scope of our service but the scientific rigour, transparent communication and sense of responsibility preserved at every stage.

Our aim is to approach excellence in every study, to enhance scientific quality and to provide professional support that helps researchers turn their data into reliable academic outputs. As msCRO, we aim to be not merely a service provider in clinical research and academic publication processes, but a trusted solution partner that protects and develops the scientific value of research and prepares it for publication.

Why msCRO?

In scientific research, strong results are not achieved through data analysis alone. The right hypothesis, a sound methodology, an appropriate statistical approach, academic integrity, ethical responsibility and a publication strategy must all be managed together. msCRO offers a holistic consultancy approach that evaluates all the scientific components of research together, without reducing the process to a single stage.

Holistic scientific evaluation

Each study is evaluated not only on the existing data set but by considering the research question, hypothesis, methodology, sample structure, variables, analysis plan and publication goal together. In this way the study is not merely analysed but made more scientifically consistent and defensible.

Methodological and statistical accuracy

Statistical methods appropriate to the type of research, the data structure and the endpoints are determined. Analyses are planned, performed and reported not just to produce p-values but to answer the study’s scientific question correctly and meaningfully.

Structuring with academic publication logic

At msCRO, studies are not treated merely as converting existing material into article format. The introduction, methods, results, discussion and conclusion sections are structured to make the scientific value of the study visible, to be better prepared for peer review and to comply with academic publication standards.

Transparent and honest process management

A study’s areas for improvement are shared as openly as its strengths. No publication or acceptance is guaranteed; instead, the focus is on improving the scientific quality of the study, addressing methodological gaps and preparing it more strongly for the publication process.

Expert team and quality-control approach

Each project is handled with the attention and diligence its field of expertise requires. Different areas of expertise in biostatistics, clinical research methodology, medical writing, data science and academic publication processes are brought together and carried out with a teamwork and quality-control approach.

Publication preparation and revision support

Scientific support is provided at critical stages of the publication process such as journal selection, manuscript submission, evaluation of reviewer comments, structuring revisions and preparing response letters. The aim is to contribute to preparing the study for publication as strongly as possible while preserving its academic integrity.

Data security and confidentiality

Researcher data, study files and academic content are handled with confidentiality and ethical responsibility. Each project is carried out with a secure working approach that respects the researcher’s effort and scientific ownership.

Our Working Principles

Honesty

We evaluate every study openly, together with its current state, strengths and areas for improvement. We do not guarantee publication, acceptance or results; we transparently set out what needs to be done scientifically.

Transparency

We clearly communicate to the researcher what will be done at each stage, in which areas the study needs strengthening and how the process will progress.

Scientific Responsibility

We do not compromise on scientific accuracy and ethical principles in data analysis, methodology, academic writing and publication-process management.

An Equal and Diligent Approach

We handle every study with the same seriousness, regardless of its size, institution or researcher. Every project carries scientific effort and academic responsibility for us.

Quality Control and Team Discipline

Studies are evaluated in line with the knowledge and quality standards required by the relevant field of expertise. Internal review, methodological consistency and academic integrity are core parts of our processes.

Striving Towards Excellence

In every study we aim not just for what is sufficient, but for what is scientifically stronger, more consistent and more defensible.

Continuous Improvement

We closely follow developments in biostatistics, data science, artificial intelligence, clinical research methodology and academic publication standards, and we develop our service approach in line with current scientific requirements.
