The Research Process: An Introduction


     Research is the basis of all science, and the first step to any discovery. I will be covering drug-based discoveries in this blog. Throughout the year, I will experiment with a target protein, which I will determine later. More details on this target will be given, but the main purpose of this blog is to expose the reader to a research method and educate him or her about the scientific process.
     In order to begin research, the first thing that must be done is that the researcher must become familiar with the equipment he or she is working with, and should be able to perform several basic experiments without hesitation. This is an important step in the creation of a researcher, because without the basic understanding of how scientific equipment works, a researcher will not be able to understand the basis of his or her research.
