Recently, the number of dermatologists who pursue scientific research careers has been dwindling in Japan. One of the major reasons for the reduction is the recent alterations of the Japanese medical specialty training system. Our strategies against the decline of young dermatologists' desire to be physician‒scientists include the establishment of a simultaneous PhD program for specialty course trainees, the establishment of a young academician-fostering seminar by the Japanese Society for Investigative Dermatology, and support for studying abroad by the Japanese Dermatological Association.
最近，在日本，从事科研工作的皮肤科医生数量一直在减少。减少的主要原因之一是日本医学专科培训体系最近的变革。我们应对年轻皮肤科医生成为医学科学家意愿下降的策略包括为专科课程学员设立同步博士项目、日本皮肤科学会设立培养年轻院士的研讨会，以及日本皮肤科协会支持出国留学。
