Summary "Research for the academic or clinical trainee may often be seen as a stepping stone for progression of career, enhancement of the curriculum vitae and fulfilment of curriculum competencies. However, research does teach a number of essential skills such as concentration and focus, in depth knowledge acquisition, team work, communication skills, patience, self-criticism and evaluation. All of these skills are transferrable and invariably important in the development of a competent clinician. Furthermore, the application of research skills is invaluable in the now common practice of developing and using evidence based medicine. Research performed which culminates in a further degree, publications and/or presentations show that a trainee has developed these skills to a satisfactory level and showcase these to a future employer. In summary, research experience for the specialist trainee is extremely important in the current medical environment and depending on individual circumstances the training pathway has evolved to facilitate as much exposure as desired. The chapters in this book expand on this introduction and will provide valuable support and a source of inspiration for both academic and clinical trainees"--Provided by publisher
