The purpose of this investigation was to assess the current status of education in research in Europe with a view to making recommendations and improvements in the status of education in research for involved stakeholders.
A questionnaire concerning education in research in Europe was sent to the National Society representatives, to Subspecialty Societies and potentially interested ESR committees. Questions were posed to assess the current status and to explore a desired future status for a broad base of interested stakeholders. Questions related to training (general status), research drivers, researcher recruitment, contents of research education, education methods, flexibility in research career planning, scientific network building, scientific research funding and measuring outcomes of research education.
The most pronounced inadequacies were perceived in the following areas: promotion of clinical scientists, promotion of material sciences, earlier recruitment of researchers, laboratory training, flexible and adaptable schedules, career planning by research group leaders, network building by funding agencies, funding by organ-based radiology sections and outcome measurement by professional surveys.
The results of this questionnaire indicate that the subject of education in research methodology, career structure and career outcome need promotion. The important role of professional societies in supporting these changes is emphasised.
• In the immediate future it is recommended that radiology researchers should maintain individual responsibility for their career path, but this should be actively facilitated by their peer group. • A research career should be encouraged to commence during residency and include an increased proportion of wet laboratory work focussed on biologic topics. • Production of peer-reviewed publications should remain a high priority. • Flexibility in professional schedules should be facilitated to allow dedicated periods for formal research. • Research programmes should be measured by the number of successful research-based personnel involved, in addition to the bibliography.
本研究旨在评估欧洲研究教育的现状，以期为相关利益相关者提出建议并改善研究教育状况。
向国家学会代表、亚专科学会和潜在感兴趣的 ESR 委员会发送了一份关于欧洲研究教育的问卷。提出了问题，以评估广泛利益相关者的当前状况，并探讨未来理想的研究教育状况。问题涉及培训（一般状况）、研究驱动力、研究人员招聘、研究教育内容、教育方法、研究职业规划的灵活性、科学网络建设、科学研究资助和研究教育成果衡量。
在以下领域被认为存在最明显的不足：促进临床科学家、促进材料科学、更早地招聘研究人员、实验室培训、灵活适应的时间表、由研究组负责人进行职业规划、由资助机构进行网络建设、按器官为基础的放射科拨款和通过专业调查进行成果衡量。
这份问卷的结果表明，研究方法、职业结构和职业成果教育的主题需要推广。专业学会在支持这些变化方面的重要作用得到了强调。
在不久的将来，建议放射科研究人员应保持对自己职业道路的个人责任，但应得到同行的积极协助。
应鼓励在住院医师期间开始研究职业，并增加专注于生物主题的湿实验室工作比例。
发表同行评议的出版物应仍然是首要任务。
应促进专业时间表的灵活性，以便为正式研究留出专门时间。
除了参考书目外，还应通过参与的成功基于研究的人员数量来衡量研究计划。
