At the University of Texas at Arlington 10th Annual MSMR Insights Conference, SKIM, Symmetric and Alcon discussed how conducting research today ‘takes a village’ to be successful. If any part of the process breaks down, the entire research project can fail. Students and alumni of the MSMR program received real-world examples of how each part of the process was uniquely important and must be in sync with the other parts.
