Identify the main types of research. Understand the meaning of “Knowledge Gap”. Describe the steps of research process. Define research problem. Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics What is Research? Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics What is Research? Scientific Data Experiments Publication Invention Discovery Relations Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics What is Research? Research is the systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of data to answer a question or to solve a problem. Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics Research necessitates the presence of the following Clear statement of the problem or the research question. Clear objectives and a clear plan of how to achieve these objectives. Using existing data, both positive and negative findings, or new data should be systematically collected and analysed to answer the original research question/s. Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics Main Types of Research: Researchers in any field usually ask two fundamental types of questions: 1. What is going on (descriptive research)? 2. Why is it going on (explanatory or analytical research)? Experimental/Observational Descriptive/Analytical Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics Radwa Hassan MD I CMS181 Biomedical Research & Biostatistics Knowledge Gap A knowledge gap refers to the discrepancy or difference between what an individual knows and what they need to know in order to make informed decisions or perform tasks.
