Investigación durante la licenciatura

Abstract

UNDERGRADUATE MEDICAL STUDENTS THAT PARTICIPATE IN A PROGRAM OF EARLY INCORPORATION TO RESEARCH HAVE DEVELOPED RESEARCH WORKS AND PUBLISHED THEIR EXPERIENCES IN INDEXED MAGAZINES, AT THE SAME TIME OF FOLLOWING THEIR NORMAL COURSES. FROM 1991 TO 1998, 321 STUDENTS HAVE BEEN INCORPORATED TO THE PROGRAM, WITH 289 FINISHED PROTOCOLS, AND 24 STUDENTS PUBLISHED 54 ORIGINAL ARTICLES OF MEDICAL RESEARCH. INCORPORATING GIFTED STUDENTS TO RESEARCH AT AN EARLY AGE SHORTENS THE TRAINING TIME FOR NEW INVESTIGATORS AND CONSTITUTES A FURTHER MOTIVATION FOR CHOOSING A SCIENTIFIC CARREER, WITHOUT JEOPARDIZING THEIR UNDERGRADUATE WORK.
