The idea of research Sample Clauses

The idea of research. The idea of research is not homogenous and there are at least five major patterns in which a faculty may understand research. The first pattern refers to personal interest. Out of ten participants, seven identified research as interest. It can be understood the way that most faculty are interested in their chosen field of study, so it becomes one of the main reasons they are engaged in research. Thus, if they have a strong interest in some problem, they start researching it. One does not go without the other. This is an important point as without interest it is rather challenging to perform a job well and be enthusiastic about one’s endeavor. However, this aspect would probably relate more to the question of motivation as one of the main reasons why a person starts a certain research project is because of his/her interest. This argument also concerns the person’s curiosity as it is in the human nature to be curious about the environment, ask a lot of questions from childhood and try to find answers by ourselves when we grow up. The second pattern is embodied in a deep investigation of a certain field which is closely connected with personal interest where a researcher suffices his/her thirst for knowledge. As was defined by Participant 1: Research is a profound investigation in a specific direction of a specific discipline; it is also your contribution to the field. (P1, Ph) After gathering a lot of information about a certain phenomenon, a person becomes knowledgeable and studying it in more detail to the point he or she becomes an expert in this field. Overall, it can be seen that research starts with an interest which develops into the profound investigation of the question. The third pattern relates to the novelty of research. In other words, apart from interest and investigation, research must discover something new that has not yet been found by other researchers. It should not be a mere copy of the previous research but should create a new way, method, concept or idea. As Participant 9 described research as: A set of scientific operations to study an object, to investigate its qualities and application, and find its novelty. (P9, Bio) The fourth pattern regards research as an opportunity to realize one’s own ideas and projects. It is true when people come up with an idea they want to implement it in real life. Before they can do that, it is necessary to conduct research. Research, in this case, will help identify the focus of the project, its pros a...

  • 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.
