Abstract:
Despite its critical importance, the transformation (aim to industrialization) rate of medical Research and experimental Development (R&D) findings is significantly lower than in other fields, mainly due to the scarcity of skilled professionals. This study employs grounded theory and semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders from both the supply and demand sides to develop a competency model tailored for medical technical managers. By aligning the model with specific challenges and requirements of transformation of medical R&D findings, this research aims to significantly enhance these professionals' capacity. In addition, the competency model will provide a foundational tool for enhancing the quality and quantity of such professionals and facilitate the public's ability to benefit from scientific research findings more quickly and effectively.
