Identification & Profiling

Identification & Profiling

SteepRockโ€™s identification and profiling service delivers the named, ranked and profiled experts a medical affairs or commercial team needs for a therapeutic area as finished results. SteepRockโ€™s analysts use OLAยฎ to identify key opinion leaders, digital opinion leaders, rising investigators and institutional decision makers. The same results stay available to the clientโ€™s team in OLAยฎ and OLMSโ„ข after the project ends, under the clientโ€™s license.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is KOL profiling?

KOL profiling assembles what a team needs to know about one expert: publications, clinical trials, congress activity, payment disclosures, institutional affiliations and the companyโ€™s own engagement history. SteepRock delivers KOL profiles through OLAยฎ and OLMSโ„ข, through its identification and profiling service, and through SteepRock Embedded Intelligenceโ„ข, where customer and KOL profiling made up nearly half of the 143 deliverables one client team completed in ten weeks.

What is the difference between a KOL and a DOL?

A key opinion leader (KOL) is a physician, researcher or other healthcare expert whose credentials and body of work give them outsized influence over how peers think and practice. A digital opinion leader (DOL) is a healthcare voice whose influence works mainly through digital and social channels. Some experts are both and some influential KOLs have no digital footprint at all, which is why OLAยฎ measures the two separately and OLMSโ„ข holds engagement with both.
