Enhanced contact investigation of smearpositive tuberculosis patients in Mongolia J Narantuya Technical officer on HIV AIDS STIs Tuberculosis and Hepatitis WHO Mongolia The ninth Technical Advisory Group and National TB Managers meeting. Operational research sometimes referred to as the science of better helps to identify solutions to problems that limit program q uality efficiency and effectiveness and to determine which alternative service delivery strate gy would yield the best o With the increasing use of information and communications technology (ICT), researchers are able to use computer software tools to find, organize, analyze, and share relevant information. However, there are hundreds of such tools to select from, for various research-related uses. Nader has collected over 700 tools that can help researchers do their work efficiently. It is assembled as an interactive Web-based mind map, titled “Research Tools”, which is updated periodically. “Research Tools” consists of a hierarchical set of nodes. It has four main nodes: (1) Searching the literature, (2) Writing a paper, (3) Targeting suitable journals, and (4) Enhancing visibility and impact of the research. Several free tools can be found in the child nodes. In this seminar some tools and their application in research will be described. The e-skills learned from the seminar are useful across various research disciplines and research institutions. Dr Sharon Mickan. Centre for Evidence-based Medicine . University of Oxford.
