“MedicReS aims to educate researchers and provoke discussion about good scientific method, statistics, ethics, publication,
and education. Faced with stifling bureaucracy, competition for funds and employer pressure to deliver results, finding the
time and space to produce the best research can seem an arduous process. “ The Lancet.

PURPOSE
To improve the quantitative and analytical skills needed for careers in Good Biostatistical Practice for
understanding & underlying the successful design and analysis of medical and public health research…

Why Good Medical Research? “Clinical research spending:
According to MedicReS, researchers should have suffi
cient knowledge not only in their own disciplines but
also on ethical, biostatistical and methodological
principles while conducting their research. MedicReS
also aims at putting into practice Good Medical
Research philosophy and its components,
namely,good planning, good analyzing, good
reporting, good reviewing and good publishing,
creating good evidence, turning evidence to good
policy, developing a curriculum for good medical
research education,defi ned not only as ethical and
unbiased, but also powerful.
Prof. E. A. KANIK, WMJ 2012.

Key Subjects: Good Planning, Research Ethics, Study Designs, Good Analyzing, Biostatistical Ethics, Basic
Biostatistical Methods, Computer Applications , Good Reporting, Publication Ethics, Guidelines for Good
Reporting
Why Teaching Good Medical Research Methods?
It has thus become increasingly important that the
teaching of good medical research methods be
expanded to scientists and institutions in low and
middle-income countries that face major health
challenges in the decades ahead.
There is a critical shortage of technical skills in
these countries--and for that matter in first-world
nations--of researchers who are imbued with a deep
understanding of the fundamental ideas underlying
the successful design and analysis of medical and
public health research studies.
Such ideas must necessarily incorporate the latest
algorithms and statistical approaches afforded by the
computing and communication revolutions,in
addition to the essential ethics of experimentation,
policy advising and reporting to our communities
regarding the public’s health.

Self-concept moves from dependency to independency or self-directedness.
Accumulate a reservoir of experiences that can be used as a basis on which to build learning.
Readiness to learn becomes increasingly associated with the developmental tasks of social roles.
Time and curricular perspectives change from postponed to immediacy of application and from subject-centeredness to performance centeredness . Knowles, M. S. (1980). The modern practice of adult education. Chicago
