Background: Number of Iranian articles published in ISI journals has increased significantly in recent years. Despite the quantitative progress, studies performed in Iran represent low collaboration in research therefore, we decided to evaluate collaboration in Golestan University of Medical Sciences (GOUMS) research projects. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, all GOUMS researc...

background: evaluating the research projects in qualitative and quantitative terms is necessary to clarify their advantages and disadvantages and to resolve the possible failures.   purpose: the study aims to assess the quality of the approved research projects. the objective is to determine whether the design of the research in the approved proposals is accurate in regard of different scientif...

Small-scale pilot projects have demonstrated that integrated population, health and environment approaches can address the needs and rights of vulnerable communities. However, these and other types of health and development projects have rarely gone on to influence larger policy and programme development. ExpandNet, a network of health professionals working on scaling up, argues this is because...

In a global marketplace, UX research often needs to span multiple target markets to ensure usable products for all users. While there is some literature on methods for international UX research, less attention has been paid to practical aspects of planning and conducting multi-cultural research studies. In this paper, we provide suggestions for leading international research based on our experi...

Interface processes strongly affect the performances and efficiency of organic based devices. The integration of 2D materials like graphene in organic devices (for example as electrodes) is expected, on the other hand, to improve the overall device performances. There is a need therefore for a deeper understanding and control of processes like charge transfer (CT) at interfaces between organic ...

of research interests. My main research interests are mathematical biology, stochastic processes, probability theory, dynamical systems, and scientific computing. A major concern of my research is to apply and develop mathematical theories to model biological problems occurring in molecular biology, developmental biology, and biochemistry. My professional aim is to construct mathematical models...

In this contribution two European research projects funded by the European Commission in the framework of the IST programme are introduced. The goal is to present the basic ideas and concepts of the projects “ Multi-Agents-based Diagnostic Data Acquisition and Management in Complex Systems (MAGIC)” and “Intelligent Fault Tolerant Control in Integrated Systems (IFATIS)” which both aim at the sol...
