Research Focus Areas Sample Clauses

Research Focus Areas. The proposed portfolio of research is designed to address the most pressing environmental and social impacts and opportunities arising from the Projects. The first group of Research Projects within the Alliance will seek to uncover solutions to key challenges related to the following subject areas: • Water; • Greenhouse gasses • Agriculture; • Socio-economic impacts and benefits of development; • Marine; • Biodiversity. Research Projects undertaken in each of the subject areas will focus on delivering research outcomes for regional and public-good. This is a critical element because the impacts of the Projects occur and accumulate beyond the boundaries of permits held by any one Industry Party. National GISERA aims to achieve credibility, trust and respect from all stakeholders through the open and transparent conduct and communication of its research and synthesis activities CSIRO’s independence as a National GISERA member and research provider is critical to the Alliance’s values and value proposition and the structure of the Alliance is designed to ensure that neither CSIRO nor one or more of the Industry Parties can control National GISERA. The Regional Research Advisory Committees’ independence is critical to the Alliance’s values and value proposition. This materially enhances the reality and perception of the independence with which National GISERA’s research is selected and monitored. National GISERA funds associated with a regional focus area (under the purview of the Regional Research Advisory Committee) are managed as a common pool, and are not partitioned to reflect the particular interests or contributions of partners. There are many reasons to sustain this principle, not the least of which is its relationship to research independence.

Research Focus Areas. We aim to be among the best in the world in a number of research areas that address the big social and environmental issues of our time. La Trobe will initially invest in five major University-wide, cross-disciplinary Research Focus Areas (RFAs). The RFAs that have been selected following an extensive consultation process with staff are: - Securing Food, Water and the Environment - Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation - Understanding Disease - Building Healthy Communities - Population Movement and Human Security Our selected RFAs will be expected to contribute significantly to the University’s research goals and will be subject to periodic review. To ensure that we retain the flexibility and agility to respond to new trends, we will also maintain and develop the underlying disciplinary strength of existing and emerging high-performing research teams by allowing additional funding programs to be developed from the ‘bottom up’, funded through a venture capital-like process, with regular performance evaluation. There will be approximately 20 such programs. Over time, some of these may evolve to anchor future interdisciplinary RFAs. La Trobe Framework – We will develop a new curriculum and student experiences to attract diverse, creative and independent thinkers who have a desire to make a difference to their world. The Framework comprises the following elements: - La Trobe Hallmark Program: In addition to our current suite of degrees, we will develop a Hallmark Program that will address some of the nations, regions and world’s most pressing issues. Being the best in these areas will simply mean studying at La Trobe, and being taught by the best teachers and researchers in the field; - La Trobe Essentials: these will be required features of all La Trobe coursework degrees, either embedded in the curriculum or as required subjects, that will ensure the La Trobe graduate is equipped with the skills and knowledge that can be applied in the workplaces of today and tomorrow; - La Trobe Enrichment programs: Opportunities will be provided for all students to participate in innovation and application in the workplace, study abroad, and become involved in research and development projects and enriching partnerships; - Design for Learning as a University-wide curriculum initiative will continue to support the development of core graduate capabilities, including critical thinking and creative problem solving; and - Radical Learning Project and flexible learning: the studen...
Research Focus Areas. The proposed portfolio of research is designed to address the most pressing environmental and social impacts and opportunities arising from the CSG-LNG Projects. The first group of Research Projects within the Alliance will seek to uncover solutions to key challenges related to the following subject areas: • Water; • Biodiversity; • Land management; • Marine environment; and • Socio-economic impacts of development. The selection of Research Projects in each of these subject areas will be informed by the outcomes of risk assessments performed using the GISERA risk matrix (see below). As the project continues to progress, it is anticipated these focus areas will broaden. Research Projects undertaken in each of the subject areas will focus on delivering research outcomes for regional and public-good. This is a critical element because the impacts of the CSG-LNG Projects occur and accumulate beyond the boundaries of permits held by any one Industry Party.

  • Research Use The Requester agrees that if access is approved, (1) the PI named in the DAR and (2) those named in the “Senior/Key Person Profile” section of the DAR, including the Information Technology Director and any trainee, employee, or contractor1 working on the proposed research project under the direct oversight of these individuals, shall become Approved Users of the requested dataset(s). Research use will occur solely in connection with the approved research project described in the DAR, which includes a 1-2 paragraph description of the proposed research (i.e., a Research Use Statement). Investigators interested in using Cloud Computing for data storage and analysis must request permission to use Cloud Computing in the DAR and identify the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) or providers and/or Private Cloud System (PCS) that they propose to use. They must also submit a Cloud Computing Use Statement as part of the DAR that describes the type of service and how it will be used to carry out the proposed research as described in the Research Use Statement. If the Approved Users plan to collaborate with investigators outside the Requester, the investigators at each external site must submit an independent DAR using the same project title and Research Use Statement, and if using the cloud, Cloud Computing Use Statement. New uses of these data outside those described in the DAR will require submission of a new DAR; modifications to the research project will require submission of an amendment to this application (e.g., adding or deleting Requester Collaborators from the Requester, adding datasets to an approved project). Access to the requested dataset(s) is granted for a period of one (1) year, with the option to renew access or close-out a project at the end of that year. Submitting Investigator(s), or their collaborators, who provided the data or samples used to generate controlled-access datasets subject to the NIH GDS Policy and who have Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval and who meet any other study specific terms of access, are exempt from the limitation on the scope of the research use as defined in the DAR.
