title: Training for clinical oncology: experience in Glasgow 1987-1992.
abstract: This paper describes how a joint core training course in clinical oncology was set up at the Beatson Oncology Centre in Glasgow. The course extends over a period of two years and modules are taught in cancer basic sciences, physics and surgical oncology, pathology and natural history of malignant disease, and statistics. The structure and content of the course are described, together with an analysis of the problems encountered. There is an assessment of effectiveness. Proposals are made for a scheme for joint accreditation in oncology.
