TUGUEGARAO CITY, CAGAYANA refresher won’t hurt.

In fact, for the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) Region 02, a seminar-workshop tackling research at Cagayan State University-Carig from Dec. 8 to 10 will only  improve health professionals’ efficiency at the workplace.

At the College of Information and Computing Sciences’ conference room, health workers whose roles thrust them in research will undergo  various trainings, with the help of expert mentors and training facilitators, in spotting and going about research problems in the field.

Participants, which can also include health enthusiasts, will go through the steps of research via didactics, discussions, workshops and plenary sessions, facilitated by experienced practitioners such as Dr. Roberto M. Macatuggal, Dr. Amiel Nazer C. Bermudez, Dr. Maridel P. Borja and Dr. Josephine D. Lorica.

The lectures will cover an introduction to research and problem identification, literature review, development of conceptual framework, research design, sampling methods, tools for data collection, data analysis and research ethics, the usual processes involved in legitimate research worldwide.

Organizers have prepared corresponding workshops that will practically apply the concepts,and where participants will be divided into groups that will identify a research topic and in the end write a capsule proposal.

Going through the activity, the DOST hopes the participants will be able to revisit and better understand the different steps involved in research.

Presence in 80 percent of the activities merits a certificate of attendance.

 

 

 

The Philippine Council for Health Research and Development (PCHRD) will celebrate its 32nd Anniversary on 14 March 2014, at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel, Makati City.

With the theme, “The Filipino Resilience in Crisis: Connecting Health R&D and Emergency Health Management,” the forum will focus on how health R&D can help in improving the country’s capacity to manage health situations in times of crises.

Champions of health and health research will grace the event including Department of Health (DOH) Secretary Enrique T. Ona, Department of Science and Technology Secretary (DOST) Mario G. Montejo and DOH Undersecretary Teodoro J. Herbosa. Albay Governor Jose Clemente S. Salceda will be the anniversary keynote speaker.

One of the event highlights is the signing of the Forum Agreement for the 2015 Global Health Forum for Health Research.

The parallel sessions, in the afternoon, will include topics on DNA forensic identification, environmental health and HIV and the diseases of the elderly. Afterwards, the PCHRD Scholars’ Society, the Philippine Association of Medical Journal Editors (PAMJE) and Philippine Clinical Research Infrastructure Network (PhilCRINET) will have their respective forums.

PCHRD, one of the three sectoral councils of the Department of Science and Technology (PCHRD-DOST), is the lead national agency responsible for coordination and monitoring of health research initiatives in the country. Through the years, PCHRD has advocated for a strong health research culture and mobilized resources to generate knowledge, technology and innovations to uplift the Philippine health care.
