Current Research Projects

"The GMC document Tomorrow’s Doctors states that medical school graduates must be able to ‘critically evaluate evidence’ and ‘use research skills to develop greater understanding and to influence their practice. It has been suggested that a period of research might help fulfil this requirement of new doctors.’ "

Extract from 'Involving Medical Students in Research'
(David Metcalfe Warwick Medical School) JRSM March 2008

Those students who have initiated and participated in research have found that the greater links forged within specialities has improved their prospects when applying for positions on graduation.
