Popis: | Organisations in under-resourced areas that achieve long-term research sustainability by successfully competing for research funding will not only build their reputation for conducting quality science but also develop their human resources in a manner that reduces the risk of becoming a future security threat. Major challenges to these organisations include identifying and prioritising funding opportunities, securing and administering external grant awards and publishing both the outcomes of research and relevant surveillance data. Lack of a standardised evaluation technique to assess institutional research capabilities poses challenges for identifying and targeting specific, repeatable processes that lead to organisational improvements. Short- and long-term goals, which are challenged by research quality, funding and human resources, need to be established in order to achieve complex missions such as reducing global health security threats. Once baseline capabilities are established, a consistent... |
