How to improve the innovative ability of medical students

1. Create a scientific research atmosphere and improve medical students’ awareness of scientific research and innovation.

Organize knowledge competition activities that are highly consistent with scientific research and disciplines, and improve the event reward system to increase student participation rates. Add lectures on introductory scientific research training, literature retrieval, PPT production and defense skills, and provide students with a display platform to broaden their knowledge. Establish a selection system in various scientific research activities to allow outstanding scientific research talents to participate in medical scientific research projects and increase students' enthusiasm for participating in scientific research.

2. Broaden horizons and establish a correct outlook on scientific research.

Establish a school-level scientific research organization association to connect with the activities of national and provincial disciplinary associations, guide students to participate in exchange activities, and broaden the horizons of medical students. Establish a scientific research and innovation base, cooperate with the pharmaceutical industry outside the school, and expand scientific research business. The combination of online forums and offline salons increases the integration effect of academic exchanges.

3. Improve the “teaching system” and “tutoring system” and build a tracking and training platform for medical students’ scientific research and innovation abilities.

The earlier and more systematically the scientific research and innovation abilities of medical students can be cultivated, the better. Therefore, a tracking training model should be adopted for medical students. Strengthen experimental skills training in the early stages. Senior grades implement a "one-on-one, face-to-face" teaching system for lower grades, and set up a rotation training system for skill modules and a standard system for experimental skills graduates, so that students can master proficient basic scientific research skills, which is beneficial to Cultivation of scientific research capabilities is of great benefit.

4. Innovate teaching methods and promote the integration of "scientific research, teaching and clinical practice".

Offer elective courses for scientific research interests to popularize scientific research knowledge. For example, medical experimental teaching helps medical students solve the problem of disconnection between theory and practice. Experimental teaching can help students construct practical concepts and fundamentally improve the professional quality of medical students.

5. Combination of online and offline activities

Teachers initiate brainstorming through the online platform. Before class, students review the information to select animal models, tools, drugs and methods, and make experimental plans and feasibility Analysis and expected results. Conduct experiments and prepare reports in class. After class, a brainstorming session was held online to discuss the results.
