Some animal scientists, in academia and industry, are clearly committed to this goal and some are putting their energies into finding alternative methodologies.
If benchmarking is truly desirable and if clinicians are to have confidence in the outputs, surveillance schemes should ensure that participating organizations adopt a consistent approach to definitions, case-finding methodologies following discharge, and to robust follow-up, to ensure that every opportunity is taken to maximize the return rate and enhance data validity.
This inconsistency was probably caused by different gene-finding methodologies applied by different labs.
However, it is difficult to compare ALS estimates across these studies and populations due to different case-finding methodologies (1, 6 12).
Networking provides proven opportunities for researchers to share their knowledge on the conduct, regulation, coordination and financing of health research – and of course on their findings, methodologies and syntheses [ 13, 14].
As Chanda-Kapata et al. [ 17] note: "Networking provides proven opportunities for researchers to share their knowledge on the conduct, regulation, coordination and financing of health research – and, of course, on their findings, methodologies and syntheses.

Henry Doss: I must say, finding a methodology to help address that "what will I do with my life" question seems daunting.
Not throwing everything against the wall, but finding a methodology.
But even more elusive may be finding a methodology to monitor the efficiency of the US health care system.
