FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

001

What is database research, and why should I care?

Database research uses large, publicly available health datasets (like NHANES and NHIS) to answer clinical research questions — without recruiting patients, getting IRB approval, or doing chart reviews. It’s one of the fastest ways to get a publication on your CV, which is why it’s become a popular strategy for trainees preparing for fellowship applications.

002

I’ve never done research before. Can I really use this?

Yes. Lumono was built for trainees with no prior research experience. You don’t need to know statistics, coding, or how to work with datasets. You bring the clinical question, and Lumono handles the analysis, statistics, and even drafts your Methods and Results sections.

003

What kinds of research questions can I study with Lumono?

Lumono uses large, nationally representative datasets, so your research questions are population-level — things like “Is there an association between sleep duration and cardiovascular risk among U.S. adults?” Some datasets also include clinical data points like lab values, ICD-10 codes, and medications, so there’s more depth than you might expect.
‍
What it’s not designed for is research requiring patient-level clinical detail like imaging or treatment response in a specific cohort — that kind of work still requires chart review and IRB approval. If you’re unsure whether your question fits, explore the available variables in Lumono and see what’s there.

004

What do I actually get when I run a study?

You get a complete statistical analysis with manuscript-ready Methods and Results sections — the parts that typically require a biostatistician. You can take these directly to a mentor or use them as the foundation of a manuscript submission.

005

Is research done with Lumono publishable?

Yes. The datasets Lumono uses (NHANES, NHIS, etc.) are the same ones behind studies published in JAMA, NEJM, and every major specialty journal. Lumono automates the analysis — the research methodology itself is standard.

006

Does this count as my own research?

Yes. You’re formulating the research question, selecting variables, interpreting results, and writing the manuscript. Lumono handles the technical execution, similar to how a biostatistician would — but faster and more accessible.

007

Are the results transparent and reproducible?

Transparency and reproducibility are core to how Lumono works. All analyses are run using R, a well-validated, open-source statistical software — AI is not used to run the statistics. Every study includes the actual R code used to generate your results, which you can download and run on your own machine to independently verify the output. Your work is fully reproducible and meets the standards expected by journals and reviewers.

008

Do I still need a research mentor?

A mentor is important for publication — but Lumono helps you get one. Instead of cold-emailing attendings asking for a project, you can approach them with a nearly finished study. Faculty are far more likely to respond when you’ve already done 80% of the work and just need their guidance and name on the paper.

009

Does Lumono help me figure out if my research question is novel?

Not currently. Lumono handles the data analysis side — selecting variables, running statistics, and generating manuscript-ready output. Confirming that your question hasn’t already been answered requires a literature review, which is still on you. We’d recommend checking PubMed before running your study. It’s a frequently requested feature and something we’re exploring for the future.

010

Why do I get 15 studies per month if I only need one publication?

Research is iterative. Not every analysis leads to a publishable finding — you might refine your question, test different variables, or explore a few angles before landing on something novel. Think of it like drafts: 15 studies gives you room to iterate your way to a few strong, publishable pieces without worrying about running out.

011

What happens after my 14-day free trial?

You’ll be charged $39/month (the early adopter rate — 50% off the regular price). You can cancel anytime before the trial ends and you won’t be charged.

012

I want this for my instiution. Can my program get access for all residents?

Yes. Our Institutional plan gives program-wide access with volume pricing, custom onboarding, and usage reporting. Contact us and we’ll build a plan that fits your program.
