Continuing education process for teachers as researchers in the Medical Sciences
Keywords:
Continuing education; research training; teachers of basic biomedical sciences.Abstract
The ongoing training of Medical Sciences teachers as researchers is a current challenge because of their contribution to the development of scientific thought. Basic Biomedical Sciences constitute the guiding axis of the teaching-learning process in the Medicine program. This study aimed to reflect on the ongoing training of Basic Biomedical Sciences teachers as researchers in the Medicine program. We conducted a review using the logical historical method and an exhaustive search in PubMed, Scopus, SciELO, and Google Scholar. In this way, we analyzed categories such as training, teacher training, continuing training, and research training, particularly for CBB teachers from their beginnings to the present in the Medicine program. The analysis showed the link between teaching and research, which is essential to elevating the teaching-learning process. It also showed universities' role in training high-quality human resources through scientific research, given its representation in educational practice. In conclusion, CBB teachers urgently need stronger research training so that, through science and research, they can elevate the quality of the teaching-learning process and address the professional challenges they face in developing the competencies of future physicians. Achieving this requires not only attitude, but also knowledge and commitment.
