UNDERSTANDING RESEARCH FROM PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION TO PUBLICATION
Abstract
This is an open mic session designed to explore topical issues in oncology research from research problem to dissemination of the findings. We will highlight some major mistakes researchers make in their attempt to start a research project or submit an article for publication, drawing from the experience of seasoned researchers. We hope to increase participants’ interest in research and publication. The session will take the form of a “talk show” with co-hosts interviewing a number of experts about challenges in research – getting started, identifying a researchable problem, researchable areas in oncology, gathering data, presenting results, publishing in academic journals, key issues and challenges in conducting oncology research, grant writing and collaborating with other researchers. The audience will also have the opportunity to ask questions of the experts as well. It is anticipated the “show” will help attendees better understand how to overcome some of the major challenges in conducting research.
