There's definetly a lot more podiatry-related research going on than I can seem to keep up with reading lol...
I'm a 2nd year student, so any research that I can currently do on my own is essentially limited to literature reviews (it's limited because I don't yet have clinical skill or experience and haven't seen cases yet). Still, I'll tell you first hand that whenever I start gathering background on a podiatry review subject, five journal articles turn into ten and then into 25 relavent articles very fast. Before long, I'm reading all week on the same subject 😛

Research is probably one of the more important cornerstones in our profession and specialty - without it we'd go extinct and wouldn't cement our position amongst the other medical specialties. We are encouraged to get involved with research as podiatric medical students and are required by many of our 3-year residencies to publish at least once during our post graduate years.
