The aim of this study was to analyze demography, motivation behind the choice of the medical oncology specialty, career plans, and the quality of training in medical oncology and to provide guidance to candidates for boosting the number of oncologists.
In 2007, the French Association of Residents in Oncology conducted a nationwide study of all medical oncology residents in France.
The strongest factors that had influenced their decision to become a medical oncology specialist were an interest in medical oncology (98%), exposure to this branch of medicine during graduate training as a medical student (83%), interest in research (81%), and the diversity of the activity (75%). The mean score for the quality of training was 6 (0-10). More time for reading during working hours as well as for attending staff meetings and greater availability of teaching oncologists would improve the quality of training. The most popular career choice was working in a public hospital but most residents stated that they had not received adequate information about the different career plans.
No data are available regarding how training in medical oncology is perceived. This study provides useful data for future policies to boost the number of oncologists.
本研究旨在分析医学肿瘤学专业选择的背景、动机、职业规划和肿瘤学培训质量，并为候选人提供指导，以增加肿瘤学家的数量。
2007 年，法国肿瘤学住院医师协会对法国所有医学肿瘤学住院医师进行了一项全国性研究。
影响他们决定成为医学肿瘤学专家的最强因素是对医学肿瘤学的兴趣（98%）、在医学生研究生培训期间接触该医学分支（83%）、对研究的兴趣（81%）和活动的多样性（75%）。培训质量的平均得分为 6 分（0-10 分）。在工作时间内增加阅读时间，参加员工会议，并增加教学肿瘤学家的可用性，将提高培训质量。最受欢迎的职业选择是在公立医院工作，但大多数住院医师表示，他们没有收到有关不同职业规划的充分信息。
目前尚无关于医学肿瘤学培训的看法的数据。本研究为未来的政策提供了有用的数据，以增加肿瘤学家的数量。
