The NIH Intramural Research Program (IRP) is the internal research program of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), known for its synergistic approach to biomedical science.
 With 1,200 Principal Investigators and over 4,000 Postdoctoral Fellows conducting basic, translational, and clinical research, the NIH Intramural Research Program is the largest biomedical research institution on earth.
 The unique funding environment of the IRP facilitates opportunities to conduct both long-term and high-impact science that would otherwise be difficult to undertake.
 With rigorous external reviews ensuring that only the most outstanding research secures funding, the IRP is responsible for many scientific accomplishments, including the discovery of fluoride to prevent tooth decay, the use of lithium to manage bipolar disorder, and the creation of vaccines against hepatitis, Hemophilus influenzae (HIB), and human papillomavirus (HPV).
 In addition, the IRP has also produced or trained 21 Nobel Prize-winning scientists.
Filigranology is the study of watermarks.
 It is usually pursued in order to discover information about the date and origin for a paper based piece of written work or a piece of art.
 There are several catalogues of watermarks - most notably C. M. Briquet's, "Les Filigranes" (1907) - including illustrations of many watermarks from dated documents to aid those wishing to undertake this kind of research.
Dogspot was founded in 2007 by Rana Atheya.
 It is the biggest online platform for pets in India.
 It sells Pedigree, Royal Canin, Eukanoba, Hill's, Whiskas and many other brands.
Indian Institute of Ports Management, IIPM, is an educational institution set up as a registered society under the Societies Registration Act, XXI of 1860 by the Major Ports of India, a government of India body.
 IIPM was initially set up with an objective to undertake training programmes, consulting and additional research services for the ports and shipping industry.
 On 14 November 2008, under a government covenant that came into action on the passing of The Indian Maritime University Act, IIPM was formally merged with seven other Indian maritime academic institutions — T S Chanakya, Mumbai;National Maritime Academy, Chennai; Lal Bahadur Shastri College of Advanced Maritime Studies and Research, Mumbai; Marine Engineering Research Institute, Mumbai; Marine Engineering Research Institute, Kolkata; Indian Institute of Port Management, Kolkata and National Ship Design & Research Centre, Visakhapatnam — to form India's single largest ports and shipping institution, namely, the Indian Maritime University (IMU).
 Currently, IIPM continues to operate as a division of the IMU, which—while allowing IIPM to retain its original name—refers to IIPM as IMU's Kolkata campus.
The Institute of Public Enterprise (IPE) was established in 1964 for the study of issues and policies relating to public enterprises (PEs).
 S S Khera, ICS, the Cabinet Secretary, Government of India, had conceived the idea of a research institution that would undertake a systematic and sustained study of issues relevant to the formulation of policies towards public enterprises.
 In the early sixties, when PEs were designed as the principal instrument to serve the social and economic objectives of development, Khera felt a need for an institute which would collect information on PEs, study issues and undertake consultancy and training for PEs.
Research-informed Teaching refers to the practice of linking research with teaching in Higher Education.
 Most universities in the world are organised into teaching and research divisions.
 Professors and lecturers will normally be contracted to do both and, in theory at least, course syllabi are structured around the teacher's research interests.
 Since the 1980s, there has been a growing movement to further integrate the two activities.
 This has led to a new interest in undergraduate research, where students enrolled on bachelor's degrees are given the opportunity to participate in research projects or undertake their own research.
Royal Canin manufactures and supplies dog and cat feed worldwide.
 The company also undertakes research into the formulation and testing of breed and symptom specific nutritional requirements of dogs and cats.
The N8 Research Partnership is a partnership created in 2007 of the eight research-intensive universities in Northern England - Durham, Lancaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Sheffield and York.
 The N8 Research Partnership aims to maximise the impact of this research base by identifying and co-ordinating powerful research teams and collaborations across the North of England.
 Collectively, the N8 universities undertake more than £650 million of research income per annum and employ over 18,000 academic staff, thus forming the largest research-pooling partnership ever undertaken in the UK.
 The N8 Research Partnership also works closely with industry.
Rick Strassman (born February 8, 1952 in Los Angeles, California) is a medical doctor specialized in psychiatry with a fellowship in clinical psychopharmacology research.
 He has held a fellowship in clinical psychopharmacology research at the University of California San Diego and was Professor of Psychiatry for eleven years at the University of New Mexico.
 After twenty years of intermission, Strassman was the first person in the United States to undertake human research with psychedelic, hallucinogenic, or entheogenic substances with his research on N,N-dimethyltryptamine.
 He is also the author of the well known book "DMT: The Spirit Molecule" which summarizes his academic research into DMT and includes his own reflections and conclusions based on this research.
RV "Investigator" is an Australian marine research vessel which was designed by RALion (joint venture between Robert Allan Ltd. and Alion Science and Technology).
 It was constructed in Singapore and is owned and managed by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), through Australia's Marine National Facility, with its operations funded by the Australian Government to undertake oceanographic, geoscience, ecosystem and fisheries research.
 In May 2009 the Australian Government allocated A$120 million for a new ocean-going research vessel to replace the 1972 built RV "Southern Surveyor", which has served as the principal research ship for Australia's Marine National Facility since 1988.
 RV "Investigator" was transferred from Sembawang Shipyard to the delivery crew on 5 August 2014 for pre-departure testing and setup.
 The vessel arrived at its home port of Hobart on 9 September 2014 and was officially launched on 12 December 2014.
