Abstract
The issue of research is a topic of interest in undergraduate medical students and needs to be carefully addressed. The undergraduates in their academic career when exposed to research and its complexities are unable to fully understand and implement their understanding in research and are usually seen fully dependant on their supervisors. Although the supervisors are responsible for providing the guidance, but the scope of the guidance usually widens keeping in view the understandings of the research student which although helps getting through the research by then but the students are not empowered to carry out the research on their own and never become independent regarding the aforementioned. As a consequence, the stimulus of promoting a research culture among undergraduates gets diluted.
