Research Proposals. A key discussion point throughout the workshop was the importance of understanding the purpose for estimating abundance. It was recognized that none of the methods explored during the workshop would provide high precision estimates of trend in the short-term but that integrating data / estimates of abundance from the proposed research projects with existing data could provide such trends. However, it was also noted that care needs to be taken when comparing estimates from, say, CKMR, with those based on ship- based surveys given each has different biases. The workshop identified the following general areas of research based on the workshop discussions:
Research Proposals. 5.1. If at any time during the Term FU Berlin proposes to conduct a research project on TSO in addition to the Project “Functional characterization of T. suis larval products in mice”, it shall first submit to Coronado a written proposal for Coronado to sponsor such research project in accordance with this Article 5 (each, a “Research Proposal”). A Research Proposal shall include any such projects underway as of the Effective Date, including a research proposal relating to a project as summarized on Appendix 5.1. Any Research Proposal shall contain, at a minimum, information supporting the scientific rationale for such Research Proposal and a research project plan, timeline and budget associated with the Research Proposal. If after evaluating such Research Proposal, Coronado elects to sponsor such research, the Parties shall promptly negotiate in good faith a mutually acceptable research project plan and budget and a new research agreement relating thereto on reasonable and customary terms and conditions.
