The world needs more ways to identify useful research and especially to apply it in all our lives.
Research translation is the act of changing the world for the better, or perhaps something much smaller in it, as a result of successfully designed and executed research projects.
Countless ideas began as academic work. Nearly every scientific and engineering and medical breakthrough was made possible because of research.
But turning research ideas and outcomes into reality - that's the biggie. It's one of the reasons I love the technological revolution that we are all a part of.
We are blockchain early adopters.
We are playing with ideas made real. Ideas that didn't even exist a few years ago. Think about it. This is BIG.
Exactly the same methodology that is used to repeatedly demonstrate human induced climate change is used to treat bowel cancer, invent jet engines and build impossibly tall buildings. And to discover exoplanets around distant stars.
Although it may not be their objective, one impact of the success of climate change conspiracy arguments is that by keeping us addicted to soot-spewing coal-based energy they are stopping real investment into amazing new technologies and thereby actively stifling further scientific, technological and theoretical advances that can improve our planet, our lives and our future.
We need more research and researchers.
We need more questions asked and answered.
And we need to find solutions to problems that until now we thought were only possible in the pages of science fiction.

you're absolutely right, the world is changing rapidly. All because of research and time invested by researchers.
👍
Excellent post @drwom
We truly need more researchers ... I cannot agree more... Thanks for sharing this
Cheers!
Welcome always...do also find time to check my blog posts...keep steeming
Nice post ! The more time goes on the more science fiction turns into science reality! Who would have thought (except a few) that we would have cryptcurrencies like we have today- de centralised and a revolution of the masses! Nice post thanks for sharing
Welcome to the new age!
I would like to disagree here about scientists. World has many researchers with many great ideas. The problem is "bureaucracy" and the fact, that people is greedy in general. Let me explain a little bit. For any new thing, like some cure, car technology, new energy source, or whatever you can imagin it can be researched, there are two areas, where it get slowed down. First are papers. For everything, you need tons of papers, way too many offices you need to visits, too many approvals you have to have. Annd this takes time, because politicians or office persons can only talk. Month, two three? Yes, we have it "in discussion". You are saying that you are ready? Haha, we are not, so back off! ... The next thing is money. Todays rich people are rich because they work well with some "technology", lets put it that way. Anything new, what helps people gets them "into the danger", that people will not want their services. One example for all, Few years ago, there was something about energy source in Australia, the goverment blocked research and building of solar powerplants to preserve coal digging. They do not care what this is bad, helps noone, and will destroy our planet sooner. Why? Because they have money from it now and when they die ... well ... who cares? And that is so sad ...
Papers
Papers are the only way that researchers are able to collaborate from around the world and share their methodologies and data for other researchers to potential replicate and validate. Without validation there will be no research being translated so i believe that papers are in fact an essential process to both the research itself and being able to translate it into the real world. Example: Drug companies cannot let drugs go on to clinical development without going through rigorous studies which involve entire rooms of paper containing all of the data needed.
Money
While money is a large factor in research and translation into practice because it costs such large amounts for every day that research is being undertaken on a given problem with clinical trials being on example with extremely large costs to run. Companies and governments funding these will obviously take into account the cost and benefit ratios to determine the viability of each potential research area for development.
In regards to the comment on coal mining in Australia, I'm an Australian resident and believe that renewable energy is being looked at here however at this time the cost and benefit ratios are obviously still within the range for it to be profitable. Many mine sites in Australia have rehabilitation programs in place that go on for years after mine closure to restore the site to its native state. I believe it will not be long before coal is no longer mined once new research is able to be translated in the renewable energy fields. Once again showing the utter importance for both researchers and translational researchers.
Yep :-)
The current Australian Government is divided between those who believe in science and those who don't.
But how can you not believe in science?

This isn't a great way to attract followers. I suggest you stop and engage with the ideas in the posts you are reading.
Nice post... I like it..
