有必要培养下一代的放射肿瘤学医师科学家，但有足够教育、培训和资金来做出变革性发现的放射肿瘤学家数量相对较少。尽管在过去的20年里，有大量的医学博士毕业生进入了放射肿瘤学领域，但这并没有导致一个重要的外部资助的医师科学家群体。由于放射肿瘤学家领导的独立研究实验室有潜力做出变革性的发现，推动我们的领域并积极影响癌症患者，我们创建了杜克放射肿瘤学研究学者（RORS）计划。在制定这个项目的过程中，我们试图消除阻止放射肿瘤学学员成为独立内科科学家的障碍。RORS项目将现有的ABR霍尔曼路径与2年的gme后讲师职位整合在一起，其中80%的研究工作在同一所机构进行。我们对RORS和传统的住院医师路径进行了单独的匹配，我们希望增加我们住院医师计划的多样性。自RORS项目启动以来，我们已经为两名学员匹配了我们的项目。我们鼓励同行机构的其他放射肿瘤学住院医师项目考虑这一培训途径，以促进独立内科科学家和放射肿瘤学多样化劳动力的发展。
There is a need to foster future generations of Radiation Oncology Physician Scientists, but the number of radiation oncologists with sufficient education, training and funding to make transformative discoveries is relatively small. Despite a large number of MD/PhD graduates entering the field of radiation oncology over the past 2 decades, this has not led to a significant cohort of externally funded physician scientists. Because radiation oncologists leading independent research labs have the potential to make transformative discoveries that advance our field and positively impact cancer patients, we created the Duke Radiation Oncology Research Scholar (RORS) Program. In crafting this program, we sought to eliminate barriers preventing radiation oncology trainees from becoming independent physician scientists. The RORS program integrates the existing ABR Holman Pathway with a 2-year post-GME instructor position with 80% research effort at the same institution. We utilize a separate match for RORS and traditional residency pathways, which we hope to increase the diversity of our residency program. Since the inception of the RORS program, we have matched two trainees into our program. We encourage other Radiation Oncology residency programs at peer institutions to consider this training pathway as a means to foster the development of independent physician scientists and a diverse workforce in Radiation Oncology.
