Research Forum
Balu Athreya
Welcome, Young Friends! Welcome to this new Forum on research. This forum is meant primarily for the young post-graduate students in medicine, pediatrics and their sub-specialties. Others are welcome to participate and enrich it. It will be more successful if you take part in its planning and dialogue. Therefore, let me start with a set of questions I want you to answer.Now , here are my questions: 1. What would you like to see at this site? 2. Is there a formal course on introduction to scientific investigation in your training program? 3. What do you think are the important requirements to create a research environment?
