Abstract
Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the opinions of research assistants working in clinical departments about basic medical sciences education and their tendency in career choices.
 Methods: The study was conducted on 110 research assistants working in the internal and surgical medical sciences. The data were obtained by using a questionnaire developed by the researcher and based on volunteering.
 Results: When the study group was asked about the field of basic medical sciences they used most during their professional lives, physiology ranked first with 36.8% (n=32). 73.2% of the participants responded to the proposition that I need basic medical science knowdelge in my specialty. 43.1% of the participants agreed with the statement that I absolutely did not want to do specialty training in the field of basic medical sciences.
