Abstract: With the continuous development of translational medicine and construction of research hospital, the quantity of research clinicians in China has become more and more insufficient which is difficult to meet the development needs of medical research and clinical practice. Given the strategic layout of the development of the health industry and the current status of the medical service system as well as medical education system in China, a research clinician training model consisted of “college education and hospital continuing education training” was proposed on the basic principles of “incremental promotion and stock adjustment”.
