This report summarizes key findings from a workshop held at the 14th International Conference on Agile Software Development (XP2013) called "Research Dojo: Collaborative Approaches for our Agile Community". Both software development and research are knowledge-intensive endeavors. While agile approaches have been increasingly adopted in software development projects, whether such approaches can beneficially be applied to conducting research is a phenomenon yet to be fully explored. The objective of the workshop was to gain a deeper understanding of the similarities and differences between academic research and agile software development, in order to explore whether agile practices can also be used for collaboratively conducted research. The opinions of the workshop participants are summarized and observations of the research dojo session carried out by the participants are reported. We conclude by identifying further areas for investigation.
