SET Program Research Training and Assessment
The Board is committed to increasing trainee exposure to research. SET4 is a compulsory research year to provide the necessary skills and experience to critically appraise new trends in surgery and contribute to the development, dissemination, application and translation of new medical knowledge and practices. Recognition of Prior Learning for the research year may be considered in accordance with the Board Recognition of Prior Learning Regulations.
In addition to the compulsory research year, trainees must prepare a paper and present at the Society Annual Scientific Meeting prior to the end of SET5. Trainees must note that abstracts are subject to competitive selection. For information of the Society Annual Scientific Meeting please visit the Society website.
The Board has developed a new Regulations Handbook for the SET Program in Neurosurgery. The Regulations Handbook is currently in draft format and will be introduced formally with the commencement of the new SET Program for 2008. Section 6 of the Regulations Handbook relating to research training and assessment can be downloaded below subject to copyright provisions. Section 6 covers the following areas:
- Research Presentation Requirement
