Through preliminary investigation of needs for clinical research training, to provide some initial evidence for design and operation of clinical research training programs in China.
An online questionnaire containing 23 questions about demographics, current practice of clinical research and needs for clinical research training was formulated to collect data from physicians and researchers in hospital. Convenience sampling was adopted.
A total of 600 valid questionnaires were collected, including 507 from physicians, 58 from full-time clinical researchers and 35 from full-time basic medical researchers. Results showed that 14 % of the participants never participated in any clinical research, difficulties in data statistics were reported by more than 70 % of participants, and over 50 % reported training needs for cohort and biobank construction, data management and clinical study design. As to the training form, a combined on-line lecture with off-line communication is preferred. As for the content of the training program, strategies for literature reading and grant writing are highly demanded.
In China, even physicians in top hospitals tend to encounter various difficulties when conducting clinical research. This study highlights the importance of systematic training for future physician scientists in China, with a particular focus on data statistics, cohort and biobank construction and data management.
通过初步调查临床研究培训需求，为中国临床研究培训计划的设计和实施提供初步依据。
采用便利抽样法，设计了一份包含 23 个问题的在线问卷，内容涉及人口统计学、当前临床研究实践和临床研究培训需求，以收集医院医生和研究人员的数据。
共收集到 600 份有效问卷，其中医生 507 人，专职临床研究人员 58 人，专职基础医学研究人员 35 人。结果显示，14%的参与者从未参与过任何临床研究，超过 70%的参与者报告在数据统计方面存在困难，超过 50%的参与者报告需要队列和生物库建设、数据管理和临床研究设计方面的培训。至于培训形式，更倾向于在线讲座与线下交流相结合的方式。至于培训内容，文献阅读和基金申请写作策略的需求较高。
在中国，即使是顶尖医院的医生在进行临床研究时也往往会遇到各种困难。本研究强调了系统培训对未来中国医师科学家的重要性，特别注重数据统计、队列和生物库建设以及数据管理。
