The establishment of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) generated considerable excitement about the capacity for health research in Canada. The long term success of the CIHR will be determined, in part, by its ability to recruit, train and retain a cadre of talented researchers. During a workshop to develop the research agenda for one of the proposed institutes within the CIHR, a national, multidisciplinary group of clinical and basic science research trainees were invited to present their views about the challenges that face Canadian researchers of tomorrow. The objective of this paper is to present the challenges associated with recruiting, training and retaining health researchers, and to identify new opportunities provided by the creation of the CIHR. The present paper concludes with suggestions that may improve the success of researchers and, ultimately, the success of the CIHR.
加拿大卫生研究院(CIHR)的成立引发了人们对加拿大卫生研究能力的极大关注。CIHR的长期成功将部分取决于其招募、培训和留住一批优秀研究人员的能力。在为CIHR内一个拟议机构制定研究议程的研讨会上,邀请了一个由临床和基础科学研究学员组成的全国性多学科小组,就未来加拿大研究人员面临的挑战发表他们的看法。本文的目的是阐述与招募、培训和留住卫生研究人员相关的挑战,并确定CIHR的创建所带来的新机遇。本文最后提出了一些建议,这些建议可能会提高研究人员的成功率,并最终提高CIHR的成功率。
