The Lattice-Boltzmann Method at the University of Manchester (LUMA) project was commissioned to build a collaborative research environment in which researchers of all abilities can study fluid structure interaction (FSI) problems in engineering applications from aerodynamics to medicine.
We provide an overview of a cloud-based elastic virtual infrastructure for research applications that we have established to provide researchers with a collaborative research environment that automatically allocates cloud resources as required.
Each of these professionals acted as collaborative researcher and a member of the research team trained them in their tasks.
One collaborative researcher we consulted suggested researching IRB members in order to assess their familiarity with CBPR.
CCE participants may be consumers, relatives and carers, citizens and members of the public, members of specific communities, non-government and health consumer organisations, and they may be seen a co-providers, collaborative researchers, and policy-makers.
In a collaborative process, researchers continually checked that they had a common understanding of the categories generated.
The network also argues that the increasing interconnectedness of the world, alongside issues such as globalisation and climate change that affect the entire planet, calls for a new generation of international collaborative researchers.
The study design incorporates mixed methods within a collaborative action research approach involving multidisciplinary researchers across MCHRI, Monash Health and Monash University.
A research team member audited and validated 10% of the data gathered by collaborative researchers from patients' original clinical records.
The composition of the research team reflected a collaborative effort between researchers from McMaster University and Makerere University with leadership and research direction provided by the African researchers (JS, RK) and methodological and content expertise from the Canadian researchers (SH, SJ).
