AAHMS Life as a Clinician Scientist 2017: Session 3

Life as a Clinician-Scientist: The Best of Both Worlds was a one-day symposium for medical students, junior doctors and PhD students focusing on the intersection between clinical medicine and science. The day was aimed at encouraging and inspiring medical students and doctors to get involved in research and workshop the skills necessary to succeed in clinical research.

Whether you are considering doing research or are already involved in research and perhaps wondering how to translate your results or thesis into a publication, poster or platform, this video series will be relevant and applicable. The sessions include talks by academics from a range of specialities and each speaker gives a vignette of their own research in addition to their speaking topic. The afternoon featured skills workshops including “how to get your research published”, “how to give a great talk or poster”, “how to select and structure a research question” and a panel on the varied career of a clinician-scientist.
