Setting Research Priorities
![Page 14: Research and Leadership in the Modern Age Eamon Kelly, Ph.D.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e675503460f94b632a5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Setting Priorities
• Government – national goals
• Funding agency – selects fields of investigation
• Institutional goals – areas of comparative advantage
• Principle investigator (PI) – project selection
![Page 15: Research and Leadership in the Modern Age Eamon Kelly, Ph.D.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e675503460f94b632a5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Collaboration
• Continuing dialogue on priorities • Boards• Advisory Boards• Visiting Committees• Peer review panels• Program managers• Workshops• International contacts• Other
