RESUMEN
Objective:To discuss the development and management of full-time research assistants in China′s large hospitals.Methods:Through the methods of policy sorting, literature research, summarization, and classification, this study focused on the policy background, development opportunities, and the needs of the times for the position establishment of research assistants in China′s large hospitals, comprehensively classified the practical exploration and existing problems of employing and managing full-time research assistants in typical large hospitals in the country, and discussed the relevant management strategies learned from international experience.Results:In addition to hospitals directly affiliated with colleges and universities, dozens of large local hospitals in more than ten provinces have carried out beneficial practices of establishing the employment, management, and assessment systems for research assistants positions and achieved some progress. However, there are still common problems such as limited cognition of ″temporary positions″, insufficient coverage of the positions, low salary and welfare, and lack of training and development mechanisms as well as promotion and career development paths.Conclusions:The development and management of research assistants in large hospitals have gradually shifted their purpose from alleviating the employment issue of the graduates to reserving talented people in medical teaching, researching and managing, forming a high-quality, professional, and full-time medical scientific team, and continuously innovating. This article puts forward some suggestions about establishing the management system of research assistants, strengthening the standardized training for talented people, and constructing a diversified incentive mechanism combining performance appraisal and target management for research assistants.
RESUMEN
Biobank is an important resource for biomedical research, which plays a tremendous role in basic research of clinical diagnosis and treatment of human diseases.In China, the biobank for major diseases was built mainly by large general hospitals which have capacity to access and store large amount of human samples.Such model of repository building is relatively independent, and flexible in operation, but it also has several defects, such as insufficient resources, duplication even in the same hospital, dispersion, and lack of effective and standardized management.This article focuses on the strategy of the standardization of the repository building in large general hospitals, aiming to promote the clinical research platform building in hospital and invigorate medical development.
