Dear All, this is very global research community from various academica. we must protect it through cooperative behavior and research activism. then, we can protect this. Otherwise, its own importance will be detoriting. therefore, I request all to cooperate each other for academic joint research, joint publication, joint project etc. I wish all of you would think about it.Raghu
Research Cooperative

Dear Raghu,Thanks for your comment, and I agree...There is some need for competition and competitive personalities in research, but there is perhaps a larger need for cooperation, on various scales (personal and local to institutional, regional and national).Perhaps there is some magic balance of competition and cooperation that is most effective for academic and social outcomes.The Research Cooperative is still very young and does not yet have a strong structure or identity as an organisation. It is a good time for our members to be expressing opinions about the role it can play in facilitating research and research communication.If you wish, please consider joining our support group. https://researchcooperative.org/group/support Sincerely, P.
