Doing research for development

Keynote address at the 27th Meeting of the Association of Systematic Biologists of the Philippines, National Museum, Manila, 29-30 May 2009

Perhaps you are wondering why I should be speaking of R&D at a meeting of systematic biologists. One reason is that knowing R&D is as important to biological research as is systematic biology. 

If I am only able to persuade 10 percent of you to publish your papers in peer-reviewed international journals, I would have done my job. And if that 10 percent is raised to 20 then 30 in your succeeding meetings, then in a few years your organization would be one of the leading science organizations in the country. And you can aim to be the first with an all-published membership. This will be the clear indication of changed research environment in the Philippines.

  

My second reason is to remind you that your presentation in this meeting is not the last phase or conclusion of a research work. A scientific meeting is a chance to present your manuscript for comments (preliminary peer review), before it is subjected to the formal peer review when you submit it for publication in a primary research journal.

 

Thirdly, I hope my manner of presentation (e.g., how slides are prepared) will suggest to you how to present a paper orally. This is important because your way of presenting a paper, like in international meetings, will determine whether or not you get useful comments from scientists in the audience to improve your manuscript.

  

My talk starts with how research should be done; then I show some symptoms of the wrong research practice in the Philippines and their two major causes (the lack of funds is not one of them, but it is often made the excuse for poor performance). 

Finally, I give examples of how neighbor countries, which had done better in research, have moved ahead of the Philippines in national progress, or are on their way to leaving us behind. I use established objective indicators here to show the countries’ performance in research and development. 

Our failure to use them has been a major cause of the poor state of Philippine science.
