Support for emerging clinician researchers

In December 2021, Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council Chief Executive Officer Professor Ann Kelso asked the college to provide an overview of the research career pathway support it currently provides to ANZCA fellows and trainees who are current or prospective clinician researchers. We were well prepared to answer having, in recent years, developed a research strategy clearly mandating targeted support for our emerging investigators, and an associated suite of practical support initiatives freely available to these researchers as they establish their research careers.
