Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to explore why for any subject of study to move forward, research is absolutely necessary. Without it, one must only follow what others have previously decided, without question or concern. Medical professionals are always open to scrutiny, so they must make research one of their principal concerns. Research thus constitutes a key component of medical professionalism in the current era of patient centered and evidence based medicine. Resident doctors must especially be equipped with the skills of critical appraisal.
