Dear Teachers/students,
I am presently engaged in a research project in Calcutta, India, after completing my master course in biochemistry.
I am going to address a serious topic here especially to higher ranked professionals and also to students of my category.
I understand the dearth of research collaboration all through out the world between the researchers individually or through institutes/universities. If the research works are shared more then I think science will progress at a much much faster rate.
Just like if two people share ideas among themselves, the gross idea of each individual increases and thinking of both rises to a higher level and have wider directions.
I know there are some important factors like secret of scientific works until published, publications, individual copyright etc needs to be considered while collaboration but isn't these points a bit cheaper in front of greater scientific progress? (giving due respect to existing regulations in scientific research).
It's not only just about collaboration relating a particular topic between two laboratories. what I mean to say is that can't the collaboration level rises to a higher level?
Can't research or for that matter papers or publications be created by/between researchers sitting far apart from each other but by sharing pieces of individual biological ideas, research works.
Isn't the pace of scientific progress slow? perhaps one of the reason may be lack of collaborations between researchers.
I think I have made my views pretty clear by now. I do not want the researchers to deviate from their original works but only want much more collaborations between the scientists performing similar research work. and more research being carried out and shared between individuals especially in the world where all can be easily accessible through world wide web, that is internet.
why can't a PhD scholar apart from doing his/her own work also contribute to/ collaborate through internet with other members to give rise to new work in similar or related fields?
My direct issue is that why can't groups of group members be formed and share their dry lab work or/and wet lab (as per time, conditions and infrastructure permits) together to give rise to new publications and thus contributing very faster to scientific world. Does it always need to be a part/member of same lab?
why can't an online laboratory be formed where the data of the experiments of individual researcher may be shared may be in a secret way and there is a guide supervising it and in the same way publications can also be made.?
I have written a lot.
I want views, discussions and suggestions from scientists as well as students about how this can be conducted efficiently and it's pros and cons.
Please write and suggest.
High Regards to all
Aditya Parekh
some new issue need to start up from practice from you,you have many good idea,then you can do it just now,step by step, creating a platform,connect some scholars,then to work
