The use of mixed methods research (MMR) by health scientists has expanded in recent years. The growth of MMR reflects the complexity of health-related research questions including the need to understand stakeholder perspectives. MMR is further incentivized by the release of the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) first version of "Best Practices for Mixed Methods Research in the Health Sciences" in 2011 and their revised version which was released in early 2018, and the increase in federal funding awarded to MMR projects. Realizing the need to train health scientists, several training initiatives are underway. In this commentary, we discuss: characteristics of MMR; the rise of MMR in the health sciences; the growing need and efforts to train health scientists in MMR approaches; and the graduate-level course in MMR that was launched at the University of Maryland School of Pharmacy.
近年来，健康科学家越来越多地使用混合方法研究（MMR）。MMR 的发展反映了与健康相关的研究问题的复杂性，包括需要了解利益相关者的观点。2011 年，美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）发布了第一版“健康科学中混合方法研究的最佳实践”，并于 2018 年初发布了修订版，同时联邦政府授予 MMR 项目的资金也有所增加，这进一步推动了 MMR 的发展。为了满足培训健康科学家的需求，目前正在开展一些培训计划。在这篇评论中，我们将讨论：MMR 的特征；MMR 在健康科学中的兴起；培训健康科学家掌握 MMR 方法的需求和努力不断增加；以及马里兰大学药学院开设的 MMR 研究生课程。
