Scientific research innovation capability represents a core competence for postgraduate students, with curriculum-based teaching laying the theoretical and technical foundation for their scientific endeavors. However, existing postgraduate courses on scientific research innovation often suffer from issues such as excessive redundancy and overlapping content. Addressing these challenges, the West China School of Medicine, Sichuan University, has innovatively developed a curriculum system tailored for clinical medicine master's students. Guided by the innovation chains of clinical and basic scientific research, and grounded in students' practical research needs, the system centers on two flagship courses: clinical research design and statistical analysis, and biomedical research strategies and experimental technical ability. This initiative has proven effective in enhancing students' scientific thinking and innovative capacities.
