The first draft of a project, prepared by the international consultant and revised by FAO, foresees the development of a research programme in biocontrol of the tree and the implementation of other control methods, including the work with farmers.
We propose this method, piloted within a HTA project on robotic assisted surgery, which involves: - the outline of an uncertainty profile of the technology, based on the systematic review of the literature, - the development of a research programme strategy based on the knowledge needs expressed by experts and stakeholders.
This welcome recognition and awareness of plant nematology as a new and important discipline of plant protection has been reflected in the development of education and research programmes in plant nematology.
This will be achieved by enhancing neuropsychiatric genetic research capacity in Africa through the training of scientists, conducting very large-scale sample collection and analysis through supporting the development of locally led research programmes in neuropsychiatric genetics and leveraging unique opportunities in population genetics.
In 2008 the Leon Thal Symposium proposed the development of a US National Registry and Database to meet the multiple needs of the research field, including the development of a a research programme on prevention [ 17].
For the development of such a research programme for diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures, reference to a centralised repository of imaging data would be an important resource for data mining and the following risk assessment (see Sects. 3.5.1 and 3.5.2).
This context also provided the impetus for the development of the Paediatric European Risperidone Studies PERSS) research programme that was awarded funding by the EU 7th framework in response to the call HEALTH-2009-4.2-1: "Adapting off-patent medicines to the specific needs of paediatric populations".
The interaction between model simulations and topical field research generates useful insights for the design of comprehensive research programmes regarding strategies for sustainable development in LFAs.
