The Health Science Index core algorithm was created using some of the same methods as used on current research projects. Using the Health Science Index's comprehensive approach, the process includes careful investigation, using academic involvement, with peer-reviewed methods, backed up by relevant experimentation. Each undertaking relies on an initial “research design" which brings together specific project concepts, key questions, and methods to be utilized for investigating a particular project.
Each research project is designed based on the Principle Investigator’s assumptions, test criteria and subsequent experiments.
The survey questions are designed and written with the understanding that how they are asked has a bearing on how they are answered.
Validation is used to check the input data to ensure it conforms with the data structure and specs of the research design to avoid errors.
Storing data during a research project needs to be reachable, safe and private. A segregated cloud storage location allows the safe sharing of online data
