When our team works together we glide forward easily –Dolphins swim together in a V formation to boost their efficiency. –Each dolphin is propelled forward more easily than swimming alone. –The V shape promotes visual contact and communication with each other.

Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world. Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world. Goethe Our tools enables us to see and hear each other

Where are the funds? What are the research priorities?

Is the condition or disease associated with a significant burden in the Oman population, in terms of prevalence, mortality, morbidity, individual suffering, or loss of productivity? Alternatively, does the condition or disease impose a significant burden on a smaller number of people who have a rare disease? Does the proposal include a particular emphasis on patients with one or more chronic condition?

Does the proposal have the potential to lead to meaningful improvement in the quality and efficiency of care and to improvements in outcomes that are important to patients? Does the research question address a critical gap in current knowledge as noted in systematic reviews, guideline development efforts, or previous research prioritizations? Do wide variations in practice patterns suggest current clinical uncertainty? Is the research novel or innovative in its methods or approach, in the population being studied, or in the intervention being evaluated, in ways that make it likely to improve care? Do preliminary studies indicate potential for a sizeable benefit of the intervention relative to current practice? How likely is it that positive findings could be disseminated quickly and affect changes in current practice?

A clear research plan with rigorous methods and key milestones clearly articulated A research team with necessary expertise, and an appropriate project organizational structure A research environment sufficient to support the conduct of the work with appropriate resources A focus on a defined population for whom effectiveness information is particularly needed
