BASIC CONCEPT OF RESEARCH IBD

Sinopse

Research is an integral part of any academic and non-academic learning, innovations, and developmental activities. Research is being done in all academic and developmental institutions but does not meet the expected level of scientific methodology. Moreover, the researches carried out are not need based, and lack in quality. The research should be directed towards major public health problems. Medical and health curricula at undergraduate level do not deal with applied basic scientific aspect of research methodology. There is need to create awareness and impart training in research to undergraduate, postgraduate and health sciences students and professionals so as to motivate them for need-based quality research in desired areas. It is an essential and powerful tool in leading man towards progress. Without systematic research there would have been very little progress. In academics, research can take many forms such as pure theoretical research, applied research, exploratory or grounded research, explanatory research, quantitative research,qualitative research, empirical research, desk research, field research, and mixed research.
