The safe and effective practice of modern medicine draws on the outputs of health and medical research and a commitment to evidence-based clinical decision-making. Clinicians need to be research literate and research active, using their reflections on problems encountered on the ground to generate research questions to improve health outcomes.
RANZCR is committed to fostering a culture of research and has developed a Research Action Plan to provide direction in respect of priorities and focus. We actively promote research by including it in the training program and encouraging its ongoing inclusion in the professional lives of our members.
Our Research Action Plan 2024-2026 outlines the key initiatives we shall use to reach our research goals.
Our two Faculties each have a Research Committee.
The Clinical Radiology Research Committee aims to promote the critical importance of research as part of good practice through development of research skills, development of strategic partnerships and administration of grants and awards.
The Radiation Oncology Research Committee aims to promote the critical importance of clinical, translational and relevant basic science research as part of good practice through administration of grants, awards and prizes.
