Paras Karmacharya, MD MS

Are you applying for a residency, fellowship, or academic job/promotion, but your research resume isn't where you want it to be?

You want to publish academic papers but:

  • You are struggling to find a winning research idea.
  • You lack the mentorship & resources to get started with research.
  • The complexity of study design and analyses feels overwhelming.

The result?

  • ❌ Rejections
  • ❌ Stalled progress
  • ❌ Watching peers advance while they remain stuck, unsure of what they’re doing wrong.

Instead, imagine how it would feel to...

publish

Publish original research manuscripts efficiently

(with proven systems that you can use over and over again)

Create an enviable research resume

(so good that they can't ignore)

authority

Build authority & make an impact

(become an expert in your field & sought-after collaborator)

What if you had a structured, step-by-step system that simplified the entire research process—one that combines timeless, proven research systems with modern AI tools that enhance, rather than complicate, your workflow?

All of this is possible, even if you feel like you lack the resources or have no clue where to start.

And I can't wait to show you how...

Hi, I’m Paras Karmacharya

I am an NIH-funded physician-scientist and assistant professor of medicine in the Division of Rheumatology at Vanderbilt University. I’ve spent over a decade in clinical research, authoring 90+ academic papers.

My journey began as an international medical graduate with no research background and “zero” publications. Most learning was hands on and my research process was haphazard and tedious. 

It took me years to learn the basics of clinical research. And I did not learn the nuances of clinical research until years later during my Master’s in Clinical and Translational Research (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN).

Today, I have 90+ PubMed-indexed manuscripts (2000+ citations with an H-index of 25).

As I was learning more, I had a hypothesis.

If I could drill down everything I learned into simple SYSTEMS, clinical research and academic writing would not have to be so difficult.

citations

With a mission to "Democratize Research" and break down barriers to clinical research, I have built proven systems incorporating the best time-tested research frameworks and leveraging AI and open-access tools (available to all).

100% satisfaction guarantee ✅

I’m proud of the high-quality program we’ve built at Rising Researcher Academy, and I want you to feel confident about joining.

I also know not all programs deliver. After 10+ years in clinical research, I’ve seen my share of bad investments—so I get any skepticism.

That’s why you get 14 days to explore the program. If you’re not satisfied, just email hello@risingresearcheracademy.com, and we’ll refund you—no hassle.

Still not sure if this program is right for YOU?

Here are a few recommendations to help you make a decision.

This could be perfect for you if...

You’re a clinical researcher or aspiring to be one and want to master the full research process—from idea generation to publishing in top-tier journals.

You’re passionate about research and committed to advancing scientific knowledge while building your reputation as a thought leader.

You’re ready to invest time in learning rigorous research methods, statistical analysis, and ethical AI techniques that set your work apart.

You believe in democratizing clinical research and want to leverage open-access tools to make an impact, no matter your starting point.

You’re motivated to influence healthcare through high-impact research, improving patient outcomes through meaningful contributions.

Not a fit if...

You’re looking for a quick fix or an easy way to get published—high-quality research takes dedication and meticulous planning.

You’re not ready to engage deeply, apply feedback, or refine your work to meet top academic standards.

While there are really no prerequisites for the program, these are my recommendations for getting most out of the program:

  • Basic understanding of research papers – You should be comfortable reading and interpreting clinical studies.
  • Some statistical knowledge + willingness to learn – Familiarity with basic statistical concepts is helpful, along with an eagerness to dive into statistical programming for research.

Frequently asked questions

Here are a few helpful answers to some of our most commonly-asked questions:

Original research is the gold standard in academia. Whether you’re aiming to advance in your academic career or establish yourself as an authority in your field, publishing original research is the key to unlocking those opportunities.

However, it’s crucial to focus your efforts on the right type of research. Hard work is essential, but strategic hard work is what propels you forward. That’s why this program zeroes in on original research studies—because they offer the most significant impact on your academic resume.

When I was interviewing for my rheumatology fellowship, my extensive work on systematic reviews didn’t hold nearly as much weight as my original research. The same was true during my academic job search after my post-doc training. Original research is what academic institutions value most.

You don’t need prior research experience or access to expensive resources to succeed in this program.

This program is designed to teach you how to conduct original research using existing databases like NHANES, which are completely FREE. By leveraging these databases, you can bypass the most time-consuming aspects of research, such as data collection and patient recruitment, allowing you to focus on the analysis and publication process.

What many people overlook is that research using existing databases is still original research. When done correctly, it can transform your research resume into something truly enviable.

And if you have access to other paid databases or your own data, this program is fully equipped to help you maximize those resources as well.

The Clinical Research and Manuscript Writing OS is specifically designed for researchers in the fields of clinical and translational research. The principles and strategies we teach are highly relevant to these areas, making this course ideal for those focused on observational and quantitative research within the clinical realm.

While the core concepts of clinical research and academic writing can be broadly applied, this course may not provide the specific guidance you need if your work falls outside of clinical or translational research.

Additionally, this course is tailored for researchers conducting observational and quantitative studies. If your focus is on controlled trials, qualitative research, or fields like the humanities or computer science, this course may not be the best fit for your needs.

If you are still unsure whether or not the program would be a good fit for you, feel free to reach out to us using this form.  We’re committed to providing honest advice and will only encourage you to join if we truly believe you’ll benefit from the program.

We recommend that you set aside at least 8 hours a week for this program. Since this is a live online program, we highly recommend that you attend the weekly mentoring sessions in person.

However, the lessons and mentoring sessions will be recorded and we will answer your questions during the mentoring session even if you do not attend these live.

That being said if this is a very busy time for you, we recommend that you wait to enroll until next year’s cohort. This is a very hands-on program and it will be hard for us to help you if you do not have the time to work on the things we discuss.

If you are not sure, feel free to contact us at hello@risingresearcheracademy.com. We want you to succeed!

Our program specifically focuses on guiding you through the process of writing original research papers. We dive deep into every step involved in crafting a high-impact research article.

However, the core principles you’ll learn—such as the Endless Inspiration Hub Method and the Reverse Engineering to Storytelling Brilliance Framework—are versatile and can be applied to writing research proposals, review papers, and theses.

That said, please note that within the Rising Researcher Academy, our feedback and support are exclusively dedicated to original research articles.

You have lifetime access to the courses. They are yours to keep. That includes future updates and additions, and we plan to update the program regularly based on student requests & advancements in the research field.

You will have access to the mentoring sessions, custom AI tools, and the community platform for 3 months from the day you enroll. If you feel like you want the course or our supportive community around for longer, you will be able to extend your access on a month-by-month basis after the 3 months in the future. Currently, we are not offering this for the founder cohort. But we will be the first to let you know when we provide this option.

This is a live virtual program. Both the course lessons and the mentoring sessions will be live on zoom.

The course lessons and mentoring sessions will also be recorded for you to watch on your own schedule or as often as you like. However, we highly recommend attending at least the mentoring sessions, which are going to be very hands-on. 

The curriculum lessons will be held on Mondays at 4 pm CST and the mentoring sessions will be held weekly on Wednesdays at 1 PM CST.

You’ll have access to these calls for 3 months starting on your enrollment date. We plan to add an option to pay to extend your access on a monthly basis in the future.

Feel free to reach out to me and my team anytime at hello@risingresearchacademy.com, or click here to contact us.
