متن کاملAvoiding waste of research resource: cohort study of publication rate for funded studies from a major UK research funder
Objectives Failure to publish findings from research is a significant area of research waste. It has previously been suggested that potentially over 50% of studies funded are never published. This study aimed to investigate what percentage of NIHR HTA programme funded projects have published their final reports in the programme’s journal Health Technology Assessment, (the monograph series); and...
