title: [Infrastructure for the development of research applied to the health services].
abstract: The author considers that the partial views given by research on health services are artificial creations arising out of the needs of specialization. He feels that the research being done is frequently irrelevant, and is prompted only by personal, group or institutional considerations. He points out that a proper understanding of the problem demands greater integration of the academic and the services groups. Some of the advantages of this would be to create favorable conditions in which basic, clinical, epidemiological and administrative research could be conducted, to use research projects for teaching purposes, and to broaden the perspective of administrators and academics by showing them the needs of each of those fields at first hand.
