The Research Agenda Setting Project (RASP) is the result of the John A. Hartford Foundation and the American Geriatrics Society’s efforts in 2001 to reach specific goals. These include: 1. Increasing research activity in the field of geriatrics within specific surgical and medical specialties 2. Attracting new specialty researchers to study and meet the unique needs and requirements of the older patient in these specific surgical and related medical specialties 3. Expanding the number and quality of age related research grant applications 4. Improving the well-being of older patients in specialty care. Essentially, the function of RASP is to look at existing literature, identify gaps in knowledge base, and propose a list of research topics to fill those gaps in the knowledge base.
Introduction
The aim of this video is to help geriatric ophthalmologic researchers by providing ideas and background for geriatric specific subspecialty research. The video discusses the agenda setting process and the levels of evidence explanations.

Video Transcript
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Hi. I’m Mariam Hussain. I’m a third-year medical student at Texas A&M College of Medicine. And I’m going to be talking with Dr. Andrew Lee, who’s an ophthalmologist at Houston Methodist Hospital as well as Dr. Dyer, who works in geriatric medicine and palliative care at UTHealth.
We’re going to talk about RASP, which is a Research Agenda Setting Protocol and project. RASP is important because it sets agendas for ophthalmology specifically related to geriatric medicine.
