PREreview is running another FREE PREreview Community Open Reviewers Workshop on July 9th held in collaboration with the Open Science Community Iraq (OSCI). Learning objectives: Define “bias”, understand where it comes from, how it shows up in scientific peer review, and learn strategies to recognize, self-assess, and address our own personal biases. Learn strategies to provide clear, constructive, actionable feedback to scientific manuscripts Learn how the PREreview platform works to support you in reviewing preprints REGISTER TODAY: https://lnkd.in/encCA2cs are on an individual basis. Please note that we have limited spots available and registration is first come first serve. If the event reaches capacity then you will be added to a waitlist and will be notified if a space becomes available.  If you have not yet attended one of our training sessions but always been interested then this your opportunity to do so.  If you have already joined us and would recommend it to others, then we’d be grateful if you would take a minute to share this opportunity with your community.    Before participating in this workshop, please create an account on the PREreview platform at  prereview.org.

Officially a published author! 👩🔬 📖 This research is the culmination of two years of work and three years of thinking. It was made possible by the incredibly generous development practitioners and researchers who invited me to sit at their table. This is the highlights reel of my thesis, looking at national interest in aid, and the role of advisers under the aid-industrial complex. A special first, and here’s to many more 💜 Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gGKBfY7J

Great to see the A-GLIMMER final stakeholder report on genetic discrimination in life insurance featured as an example of a non-traditional research output with high impact and outcomes.. Wade Kelly, you can add that it was cited in Treasury documents as the basis of the government review and eventual announcement about legislative reform, though this isn't captured in Altmetric because they used the URL rather than the doi (a distinction important to academics but meaningless to public servants). More work still to be done to ensure the real impact of NTROs can be fully tracked!

Yeah, we get it. Finding out your participants' perceptions, opinions, and experiences related to the subject matter of your research is hard to do. We also know that you can't skip this part. So, when it comes to Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), how can it really help strengthen your research? Find out here: https://lnkd.in/gBFNeSVq

If anyone is interested in developing their skills in research skills, a quick thought based on my experience might be helpful. 💬 Here’s how I got started: Follow up on the trends in your subject research.

The secret behind a good research topic in any domain Your research question must be clear, specific, and answerable. It should be relevant to your field, audience, and goals. A great way to craft your research question is by using the PICOT framework, which represents Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome, and Time..
