Evaluation of research opportunities and research engagement among junior doctors (Revised)

Role

Principal Investigator

Description

This project will evaluate the availability and uptake of research opportunities and the level of research engagement among junior doctors in two Northern QLD regional hospitals. The study will recruit a mixed methods approach, including a desktop review, an online survey and focus group discussions and interviews with interns, pre-vocational doctors, hospitals’ research staff and clinician researchers to quantify doctors' level of research engagement and competency, as well as exploring their experiences of research activities. The study outcomes will identify potential strategies that research support services can apply to cocreate a collaborative and productive research environment within a hospital setting.
