Research Training in the Czech Republic
Abstract
Key Words: Czech Republic, Research Training in Europe, Research Training in Research Training, Clinical TO THE EDITOR: The Spring 2001 Special Issue of Academic Psychiatry presented interesting ideas about research training in the United States and underscored the importance of well organized, structured research training. We would like to share an experience with research training in another country, the Czech Republic. Research training in the Czech Republic has been reconceptualized and revamped during the last decade, since the fall of communism. Similar to the training in the United States, research training in the Czech Republic is conceived at two main levels, undergraduate and graduate. Research training is not mandatory at either level. Undergraduate research training is poorly organized. Medical students usually work for free in research labs, where they join someone's research project. They focus on a small, specific problem. Students present the results of their research at various student conferences and/or specialty society meetings. They rarely conduct their own project from the very beginning to completion. Thus, the research training experience of medical students in the Czech Republic is similar to the research experience of most medical students in the United States.
