Medical Students' and Supervisors' Experiences of Extracurricular Research at a Rural Clinical School: A Mixed‐Methods Study
Training or working in a rural area is associated with specific barriers and enablers for medical students participating in research and their supervisors. Time constraints for both students and supervisors were key barriers to project continuation, with successful projects usually having a clear finite timeframe. Targeted strategies specific to rural contexts are needed to maximise rates of project completion and publication.
