Clinical Research: Thinking it through
Part 1: The research question, literature review, and appraisal of the relevance of results
1. The research question
1.4 Asking the right question
b. Interesting
The question must not be interesting only to you. Speak to others who know about the subject. Also think ahead of what the results are apt to achieve, and to what extent they can advance knowledge, influence current practices, or lead to new areas of research. If their relevance is not clear cut, then the research question should be readdressed.
