Research Resources: Establishing Timelines

One of the most important aspects of conducting quality research – especially during a pharmacy residency – is the establishment of a reasonable timeline. The research advisor should work with the resident to develop a realistic timeline that will enable completion of a quality project while undertaking the primary training responsibilities associated with the residency program. 

A graphic or tabular timeline should be used to track milestone components of the research project. View an example of this type of timeline.
