Can changes to junior surgical jobs improve training and make a career in surgery more attractive

Surgical training has been extensively revised in recent years and new challenges are emerging due to a shorter length of training with fewer opportunities for hands-on experience. Junior doctors' hours are likely to be reduced further, some even advocate shift systems. How do junior surgical jobs affect the desire of young doctors to become surgeons? How can further improvements be made to make surgical training more attractive and effective? This study aims to answer these questions by asking the junior doctors concerned.
