"Research can shed light on issues we didn't even know existed, and can raise questions we hadn't realized even needed asking"
Research is the systematic investigation and study of materials and sources to establish facts and reach new conclusions, so it shapes people's understanding of the world around them, It is different than other forms of obtaining knowledge, because it uses a systematic process called the Scientific method.
The value of the research depend on how well it is designed and done. Therefore, one of the most important considerations is to follow the design or plan that is developed by and experienced researcher.
The most relevant importance of research to us medical students and doctors lays of course in the way it makes our practice better, Research has led to the introduction of new medical treatments and cures that have helped counter several diseases, thus increasing human life expectancy. It is now possible to live 10 years longer than in the 1960's and 20 years longer than in the 1930's.
Through research findings knowledge can be increased and used to devise new applications.
Research in the field of psychology made it possible to explain individual's behaviors including how people think and act in certain ways. This helps to determine disorders and their impact on the person and society, thus developing appropriate treatments to improve the individual's quality of life.
A more personal gain of research is that it works as a seed to love reading, writing, analyzing and sharing valuable information. It entails both reading and writing. These two literacy functions help enable computation and comprehension. Reading opens the mind to a vast horizon of knowledge, while writing helps a reader use his/her own perspective and transform this into a more concrete idea that s/he understands.
Apart from reading and writing, listening and speaking are also integral in conducting research, interviews, attending knowledge-generating events, and casual talks with anyone certainly aid in formulating research topics.

Clinical research has improved health care practice;
The explosion of technological advances and scientific efforts and opportunities to disseminate new knowledge in the last decade is placing healthcare professionals in a challenging position to keep themselves abreast of the state of the science. Therefore, it is necessary to use quick criteria to establish priorities regarding publications to be read and to have sufficient knowledge.
Evaluation and appraisal of findings from clinical research is a fundamental role of health care professionals. This will lead to the evaluation of current clinical practice and the adoption of the best scientific evidence, which translates into evidence-based practice. Health care providers must know how to evaluate the effect of a proposed intervention in reducing morbidity and improving quality of life in patients from a health care service.
So whether you love it or hate it, you need to do it. Finding out the facts about your assignments, your job, or your life will allow you to make better decisions and gain more knowledge. In fact, the more research you do, the more you can do with your life.
Thank you very, very much ,for that impressive article.
