This practical guide for residents and young researchers about to embark on research details the significant planning one must first do, including choosing a suitably experienced clinician as a supervisor, sourcing for a winning idea with significant clinical impact, performing a proper review of the literature, defining clearly the objectives to be set and adopting an appropriate methodology. Amongst other topics it also covers statistical evaluation; how to draw up relevant and appropriate conclusions; the ethics of research; the procurement of research grants; how to write a research proposal to secure much needed grants; and how to write a report that can be published in an international, refereed journal or as a thesis.
