Nanoscale Science, Engineering and Technology Research Directions

This report describes important future research directions in nanoscale science, engineering and technology. It was prepared in connection with an anticipated national research initiative on nanotechnology for the twenty–first century. The research directions described are not expected to be inclusive but illustrate the wide range of research opportunities and challenges that could be undertake...

Life-science research within US academic medical centers.

CONTEXT Besides the generic "basic" vs "applied" labels, little information is known about the types of life-science research conducted within academic medical centers (AMCs). OBJECTIVE To determine the relative proportion, characteristics, funding, and productivity of AMC faculty by the type of research they conduct. DESIGN Mailed survey conducted in 2007 of 3080 life-science faculty at th...

The Design Science Research Roadmap: In Progress Evaluation

Although Design Science Research (DSR) is now an accepted approach to research in the Information Systems (IS) discipline, consensus on the methodology of DSR has yet to be achieved. Lack of a comprehensive and detailed methodology for Design Science Research (DSR) in the Information System (IS) discipline is a main issue. Prior research (the parent-study) aimed to remedy this situation and res...
