| Popis: |
UK medical and dental school curricula limit opportunities for students to gain experience in research. This parallels a decline in the number of clinical academics. To address this at grass roots level, we organised and arranged a residential summer taster week; INSPIRE (Introducing New Skills to Promote Inspirational Research Experience)-Aberdeen). The purpose was to give first and second year medical and dental students who wished to explore a potential clinical academic career a taste of wet laboratory research and to gain experience in basic research skills. Seventeen students from eight different UK medical and dental schools attended this free residential course and were exposed to various laboratory techniques with clinical translation and application in diagnostic and therapeutic medicine. Students were given access to relevant online learning tools of the techniques being used beforehand and seminar style presentations were used to emphasise their clinical application. Students met daily with clinical academics from different specialities to give them a flavour of potential clinical academic career pathways and options. All students felt that the summer school helped them consider academic medicine as a career thus achieving our aim to inspire clinical academics of the future. |
