Abstract: Introduction: Academic research faces the challenge of defining relevant problems that generate social impact, balancing individual interests with the needs of the field of study and institutional expectations. In this context, problem banks and research seedbeds emerge as key tools to guide academic efforts towards applicable and high impact solutions. Materials and methods: A bibliographic review was carried out in databases such as PubMed and Scopus, selecting relevant publications, complemented with the authors' experience, to detail a proposal for articulation between problem banks and research seedbeds. Results and discussion: Problem banks organize and prioritize relevant research topics, serving as a bridge between theoretical knowledge and the solution of concrete problems. The research seedbeds complement this structure by involving students in real projects, strengthening their research training and their impact on society. The synergy between the two allows for more efficient research, oriented towards applicability and the generation of innovative knowledge. Conclusions: The articulation between problem banks and research seedbeds constitutes an overcoming proposal that optimizes academic processes, promotes research culture and positions universities as leaders in the solution of real problems.
