Key Characteristics of a Good Research Idea:

• Originality: It should add something new or offer a new perspective.
• Relevance: It should be important to the scientific community, society, or industry.
• Interest: It should be something you are passionate about.
• Clarity: It should be clear and focused, not too broad.

How to Generate a Research Idea:

• Review recent journal articles and research papers.
• Attend academic seminars, workshops, or conferences.
• Identify gaps or unanswered questions in your field.
• Discuss with peers, mentors, and professionals.
• Reflect on practical problems observed in real-world settings.

2. Research Proposal

Main Components of a Research Proposal:

3. Feasibility in the Laboratory

Key Points to Assess Feasibility:

• Resources:
  Do you have the necessary equipment, instruments, and reagents?
• Technical Skills:
  Do you or your team have the required technical expertise?
• Time:
  Is the project timeline realistic for the type of experiments planned?
• Cost:
  Are the required materials affordable or fundable?
• Ethical Approval:
  Does your research need ethical clearance (e.g., animal, human studies)?
• Safety:
  Are there any hazardous materials or risks involved that require special measures?

If any gaps are found:

• Modify the research design.
• Seek collaborations with other labs.
• Apply for additional funding or resources.
• Scale down the project to a manageable size.
