Guidance and support in the form of a methods partnership will involve close cooperation (throughout the project phases from planning, data collection, analysis, and reporting) between one of the Centre’s staff and the student or researcher. The objective of the cooperation is a scientific publication. A typical example of a project could be a research project which is part of a PhD thesis (for example a systematic review).
An application for a methods partnership should be addressed to OPEN open@rsyd.dk and should contain a) a short outline of the project’s research question, if possible in PICO format (clarification of population, intervention, comparison, and outcome) or in the form of a protocol, b) expected time frame and c) publication plan.
The Centre will strive to ensure (but cannot guarantee) that all inquiries will be able to receive a methods partner.
