目的:描述我国高校卫生政策与体系研究(Health Policy and Systems Research,HPSR)现状及能力发展面临的问题与挑战,并提出人才教育培养方面的建议。方法:对我国8所具有代表性的高校中从事HPSR的人员进行定量调查和定性访谈。结果:我国...目的:描述我国高校卫生政策与体系研究(Health Policy and Systems Research,HPSR)现状及能力发展面临的问题与挑战,并提出人才教育培养方面的建议。方法:对我国8所具有代表性的高校中从事HPSR的人员进行定量调查和定性访谈。结果:我国高校从事HPSR的科研人员较为年轻,75.26%具有博士学位,以卫生管理和公共卫生学科背景为主。在研项目分析显示,卫生信息与证据是该领域的主要研究方向,资金投入量和研究者关注度均较高。然而,当前研究资源仍较集中于资深研究者,对青年学者支持力度有限。HPSR以跨领域多学科为特征,但目前机构及个人间的合作较为有限。此外,高校承担的研究项目中仅5.81%转化为政策。讨论与建议:鉴于我国高校HPSR能力方面面临研究者较为缺乏且背景单一、多学科合作受限、HPSR科研投入不足、青年研究者所获资源有限、政策转化能力薄弱等问题。建议在进行高校HPSR人才教育培养过程中,加强本科生和研究生的教学,加强对青年研究者的培训和支持,建立研究成果传播与转化机制。展开更多
