and publicize research outputs. Dr. Nader has collected over 700 tools that
enable researchers to follow the correct path in research and ultimately
produce high-quality research outputs with more accuracy and efficiency.
“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 the visibility and impact of the
research. This webinar will provide an overview of the most important
tools from searching the literature to disseminating the researcher’s
outputs. The e-skills learned from the webinar are useful across various
research disciplines and research institutions.
