Public roadmap

What gets researched next should follow evidence and demand.

This roadmap shows the major research/database priorities. Reader suggestions are one input alongside search demand, evidence gaps, safety importance, revenue opportunity, backlink potential, page quality, confidence, and implementation effort.

Priority lanes

Major research/database work

Now

Verified high-traffic profiles

Raise evidence, citation, dose, safety, and claim-level verification on pages already receiving meaningful search demand.

Evidence Report
Now

Safety Checker depth

Improve interaction provenance, uncertainty labels, and source-backed educational explanations for combinations people actually check.

Safety Checker
Next

Evidence Database & trial exploration

Make structured human evidence easier to filter, verify, compare, and connect back to specific claims and outcomes.

Evidence Database
Next

High-demand comparisons

Expand only comparisons with distinct search intent, adequate evidence on both sides, and a useful decision framework.

Comparison center
Later

Botanical relationship tools

Deepen the Atlas and knowledge graph around botanicals, compounds, mechanisms, outcomes, studies, and safety without presenting mechanisms as proven benefits.

Botanical Activity Atlas
Ongoing

Corrections & new evidence

Review material corrections, missing primary studies, evidence-grade changes, and safety updates as the literature changes.

Correction history

Shape the backlog

Suggest research

Submit topic names only. Do not enter symptoms, diagnoses, medications you take, or other personal medical information. Detailed corrections belong in the public correction workflow.

Found an error or missing context?

Use the correction workflow for a specific claim, citation, dose, safety statement, or study interpretation so the evidence can be reviewed and, when material, added to the public correction history.

How suggestions are prioritized

Repeated suggestions create a demand signal, not an automatic publishing order. A topic still needs adequate evidence, a useful search or research intent, acceptable safety framing, and enough unique value to justify an indexable page or tool upgrade.

Tool context

How to use What gets researched next should follow evidence and demand.

See what The Hippie Scientist is improving next and suggest ingredients, comparisons, missing studies, or scientific corrections without sharing personal… Tool and utility pages are meant to support research decisions, not replace the full evidence review. Use the results as a triage layer that points you toward the profile, guide, or safety topic that deserves closer reading.

For What gets researched next should follow evidence and demand., the most useful approach is conservative: check one question at a time, compare the result against the full profile, and avoid assuming that an automated output proves safety, effectiveness, or correct dosing.

If the question involves prescription medications, pregnancy, breastfeeding, chronic disease, surgery, addiction risk, or a child, the next step should include a clinician or pharmacist rather than relying only on a supplement website.
