Resident training in clinical chemistry

Clin Lab Med. 2007 Jun;27(2):343-58; abstract vii. doi: 10.1016/j.cll.2007.03.007.

Abstract

Practicing clinical chemists responded to an anonymous, open-ended questionnaire designed to define the state of clinical chemistry education in pathology training programs in the United States. Survey respondents identified many ideas for educational improvements and offered criticism regarding aspects of clinical chemistry education that are not working particularly well. Many of these findings are generalizable to other subspecialties of clinical pathology. It is hoped that this analysis will allow readers to compare their programs with national trends and identify new ways of improving clinical chemistry training at their institutions.
