Ideas for Research – What Question(s) do you want to answer?
The CTRad Radiographers Think Tank is designed to be an interactive practical day. It is
anticipated that you have an idea (or many ideas) for research for your centre.
This form may help you focus on a research project(s) for your centre.
- It does not have to be too focussed at this stage; it may just be an idea or an
observation about your area of clinical practice/interest.
- Try to keep in mind ‘Who, What , Where, Why, When and How’ when asking your
question.
