Research PhD

Research PhD is an Achievement/Trophy in BioShock. The Achievement is worth 20 Gamerscore and the Trophy is bronze.
==Requirements==
The player has to fully research every enemy type in the game, by getting all possible Research Rewards by photographing the various enemies with the Research Camera.
==Notes==
*The Research Camera is found in the Warden's Office in the Neptune's Bounty level and is plot-related, it cannot be missed.
*The camera uses Film, which is required to take pictures. 
*There are eleven different enemies the player has to fully research:
**Houdini Splicer
**Leadhead Splicer
**Nitro Splicer
**Spider Splicer
**Thuggish Splicer
**Security Bot
**Security Camera
**Turret
**Bouncer Big Daddy
**Rosie Big Daddy
**Little Sister
*Photographs of enemies killed during gameplay will give you a C-grade photo.
*Without returning to previous levels, the earliest level the player can achieve this Achievement/Trophy is Fort Frolic.
**If the player returns to previous levels with the Rapture Metro, the earliest is Arcadia.
**Every level has a different set of enemies, none include them all.
*Most enemy types will respawn, but there are limited numbers of Little Sisters, Turrets and Security Cameras in each level (a destroyed Turret/Security Camera can't be photographed).
*Photographing a "friendly" (hacked or hypnotized) Security Device or Big Daddy won't work.
*Elite versions of enemies and rescued Little Sisters will count towards this Achievement/Trophy.
*By getting this Achievement/Trophy, the player will also have gained every other research related Achievement/Trophy in the game (the only one not guaranteed is Quality Research Photo, but it is very unlikely that you will complete this Achievement/Trophy without getting it).
**Every enemy types, except for the Turret, Security Camera and Security Bot, have a "Fully Researched [Enemy]" Achievement/Trophy for fully researching them.
==Strategy==
*Make sure to always have film on you, which can be found or bought from Circus of Values vending machines.
*Keep count on which enemy you have researched fully.
*If the player can't find a specific enemy type in the current level, the player can return to previous levels with the Rapture Metro. They can also check online (for example, this wiki) to see which enemy is found where.
**Make sure to get this Achievement/Trophy before entering the final level, as there is no going back.
*Photograph every enemy you see.
*Take as many photos as possible of any the enemy you encounter, even if the score is low. This is especially important for Little Sisters, Turrets and Security Cameras, as there are a limited number of them.
**The Little Sisters that deliver the Little Sister Gift to the Gatherer's Garden from Tenenbaum can also be photographed. Every third Little Sister the player rescues will grant them the Little Sister Gift, meaning that it is recommended to save the Little Sisters in order to get this Achievement/Trophy. Tenenbaum will inform the player via the Radio when a Little Sister Gift is available, giving the player time to make sure that they have Film. The Little Sister will be present at the gift when the player arrives at the Gatherer's Garden and will then run of towards the nearest Little Sister Vent.
*Always try to get an A-grade photo, as they give the highest score.
*Conditions that affect the research grade include:
**The first photograph you take of an enemy will always give the highest grade.
**Make sure the camera is focused and the enemy is in frame.
**Be close enough to the enemy, as far-away shots will give you a lower grade.
**Multiple enemies in the picture will give a higher grade.
***Big Daddies and Little Sisters are often found in pairs.
**"Action Shots", meaning an enemy is hostile (towards the player or another enemy), will give a higher grade.
*The Winter Blast Plasmid can help hold an enemy in one place while taking a photo of it.
*Security Bots can easily be spawned by simply standing in front of a hostile Security Camera.
*Use the Photographer's Eye Gene Tonic, which increases all research photo scores by 10% (found in Worley Winery in the Farmer's Market).
*Although the requirements to max all research for each enemy type are mostly the same, the player can check out specifics for the enemy type by visiting the "Fully Researched [Enemy]" Achievement/Trophy wiki pages for each enemy type (visit the individual pages for the Security Devices for specifics on them):
**Fully Researched Houdini Splicer
**Fully Researched Leadhead Splicer
**Fully Researched Nitro Splicer
**Fully Researched Spider Splicer
**Fully Researched Thuggish Splicer
**Fully Researched Bouncer
**Fully Researched Rosie
**Fully Researched Little Sister
