Abstract: Objective To explore the role of student research training program(SRTP) in improving the scientific research interest, basic knowledge and basic ability of undergraduate-master's consecutive medical students. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among 69 medical students who were in the 2015 and 2016 clinical programs. They participated in and completed SRTP. And some situations was statistic analysis including students' SRTP team formation, project implementation, satisfaction, and academic results(published papers). Results 85% of the project direction was to be completed independently by the project team members under the guidance of the mentor.The comprehensive scientific research ability of students at the later stage of the project was obviously higher than the beginning of the project.More than 85% of students were satisfied with the completion of the SRTP course. SRTP had a significant improvement in students' scientific research thinking, communication and collaboration ability, experimental habits, and learning ability. There were shortcomings such as low student publications and low quality. Conclusions SRTP can be used as a pre-cultivation link for the improvement of scientific research ability of undergraduate-master's consecutive medical students. It plays a bridge role of scientific research ability in continuous cultivation of undergraduate-master degree, and which has important reference value for talent training in medical universities.
