Your research workflow
From an idea to a scientific manuscript
Research requires a clear question, a suitable method, careful analysis, and honest reporting. These steps provide a starting framework; specific projects may require additional procedures.
Define the question
Identify a problem, review existing literature, and determine what you want to investigate.
Plan the method
Choose an appropriate design, identify required resources, and obtain necessary approvals before starting.
Analyze and write
Record genuine observations, analyze data appropriately, cite sources, and report limitations.
Prepare and submit
Check manuscript quality, authorship, references, ethics requirements, and the submission guidelines.
Research integrity comes first.
Scientific progress depends on honesty, accurate reporting, proper citation, responsible data handling, and respect for research participants and laboratory safety. Never fabricate results, plagiarize another person's work, or claim authorship without a legitimate contribution. Obtain required supervision and approvals before conducting experiments or collecting data.
