Radiology Academic Network for Trainees (RADIANT)
Background
Launched in March 2019, RADIANT links regional trainee networks working together to deliver projects including national snapshot audits, observational research studies and to assist in recruitment to NIHR CRN portfolio studies.
Trainees have the support of research-active consultants who provide guidance and mentorship. There are annual meetings where audits and research projects are discussed, prioritised and selected for the year ahead. The first audit project was successfully completed and submitted to UKIO 2020 (UK Imaging and Oncology). An annual report of activities is provided to the our clinical radiology Academic Committee.
Aims:
- Increase trainee engagement in audit and research, including recruitment to National Institute of Health Research Clinical Research Network (NIHR CRN) portfolio studies.
- Increase trainee engagement in national and international scientific meetings.
- Involve trainees in publications.
- Improve research training for trainees.
