Research involvement is good for both patients and clinicians. In healthcare organisations that are research active, not only are mortality outcomes better, but clinicians are happier and retention rates better. In this chapter we consider how early career clinicians can involve themselves in research, for the benefit of your clinical practice and your patients. It is important to foster early exposure to research, which also makes further involvement in research a less intimidating venture. The only warning attached to that is that once you’ve had a taste of research involvement, and seen your first publication in print, you may find it hard to leave it behind! Establishing research skills early in one’s career can have advantages; firstly, it encourages critical thinking on how to approach any patient, their presenting difficulties and the selection of appropriate interventions. Further, being able to appraise the expanding and complex (and often contradictory) evidence base is a vital skill any clinician will utilise throughout their career. Finally, it is, or can be, enormous fun!
