Considering starting a research project? Apply the FINER criteria:
Feasible
Do you have the resources to study this? Enough patients? Support?
Interesting
Does it interest you enough to devote your time to it? Does it interest colleagues?
Novel
Would it provide new findings, or confirm, refute, or extend prior findings?
Ethical
Can you think of a way to ethically study it?
Relevant
Consider possible outcomes of your research. Could the study advance care or policy?
