The Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation seeks to improve the quality of scientific publications created by student and faculty affiliates. Our team determined that encouraging collaborative research through a mobile application would contribute positively to achieving this goal. Interviews and focus groups with local student and faculty researchers revealed application feature requirements to meet the needs of university affiliates. These features were integrated into a mobile application prototype built to assist researchers in constructing strong teams.
