Abstract
Inclusion of research methodology and biostatistics in the postgraduate curriculum by the National Medical Commission is a welcome step to improve the research milieu in medical colleges in India. This step will have a long-term impact on research outcomes and scientific publications. In 2019, AIIMS-Bhubaneswar implemented the revised postgraduate curriculum, which introduced a faculty-facilitated program on research methodology and biostatistics for all postgraduate students. The institute also made the examination in research methodology mandatory, which can be viewed as a complementary mechanism. As the revised curriculum has been in practice for the last 4 years and six sessions of examinations have been completed, the authors tried to look back to check whether the program is having the expected results and share the experience they gained.
