生物材料协会 (SFB) 旨在通过充当信息和想法交流论坛为其成员提供服务。为了帮助 SFB 的实际发展,更具体地说是生物材料教育,我们对所有活跃成员、准成员和学生成员进行了调查。总的来说,调查询问了有关受访者人口统计、SFB 经历和活动以及对生物材料教育的看法等问题。对生物材料相关教育和职业相关培训实践的看法和需求是调查的具体重点。共有 140 人参与了此次调查,回应率为 18%。行业成员认为,新员工总体上应该在产品开发、新材料和设备的监管问题以及所需的相关测试方面接受更好的培训。当被问及他们的专业教育缺少什么时,许多受访者表示缺乏谈判、管理和理解学术界以外的需求等领域的商业培训。此外,许多受访者似乎难以识别他们应该知道的内容,并感到“缺乏固定的专业知识”。这项研究提出了许多需要进一步讨论的想法和问题。结果最终应该有助于帮助 SFB 决定如何最好地集中未来的生物材料教育工作。
The Society for Biomaterials (SFB) aims to serve its members through acting as a forum for the exchange of information and ideas. To aid in the practical development of the SFB and more specifically biomaterials education, all active, associate, and student members were surveyed. In general, the survey asked questions regarding respondent demographics, experiences and activities with the SFB, and opinions about biomaterials education. Perceptions and needs of biomaterials-related education and career-related training practices were a specific focus of the survey. A total of 140 individuals responded to the survey for a response rate of 18%. Members from industry felt that new hires, in general, should be better trained in product development, regulatory issues for new materials and devices, and in the relevant testing required. When asked what was missing from their professional education, many respondents commented that business training in areas such as negotiations, management, and understanding the needs outside of academia was lacking. Also, many respondents seemed to have trouble identifying with what they were supposed to know and felt a "lack of set professional knowledge." This study has raised many ideas and questions that require further discussion. The results should ultimately be useful for helping the SFB decide how best to focus future efforts in biomaterials education.
