ResearchQuestion
Research is extremely difficult, it revolves around a question
Having the right question differentiates success from failure
Research can have many objectives:
training HQP changing policy adding knowledge economic development transferring knowledge
But in the end it must be sustainable
Therefore, research success can be defined as firstlytransferring knowledge (generally means published), and secondlygenerating funding (sustainable).
Research success can be defined as:
published (the knowledge disseminated) funded (sustainable)
It is always hoped that research is:
of high impact (matters) of high volume (generates significant funding)

Successful Sustainable
A few general concepts:
only outstanding research is sustainable (will generate funding)
NOSM will never have enough money to support on-going research
NOSM can only invest in (seed) outstanding research
NOSM can’t invest in research that can’t be externally sustained
NOSM must focus on supporting team-based research
NOSM-supported research must focus on our Strategic Plan
NOSM Research Trends (‘05 – ’10)
Publications (focus on peer-reviewed, original research)
Research Funding (Institutionally initiated and Investigator initiated)
