Responses from the stakeholder organizations.

The main objective of this qualitative analysis is to increase the quality of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) research education. Subject matter experts and stakeholders were sent a list of possible topics to include in a research course and were asked to comment on it, add or subtract topics, and suggest appropriate research papers to use, lessons learned in their topic areas and possible stand-alone topics for inclusion in other courses. Their feedback was used to revise the topic list, create a list of foundational research papers to include in a research course and devise a list of stand-alone topics that could be included in the general TCM research curriculum. The result is a TCM research course curriculum that will improve the teaching of evidence-based medicine (EBM) practices to TCM students. This will help TCM faculty and program directors improve existing courses, develop new courses and strengthen EBM education.本质性分析的核心目标为提升中医药（Traditional Chinese Medicine, TCM）研究教育的质量。研究人员向学科专家与利益相关方发放了可纳入研究课程的备选主题清单，邀请其对清单发表评议、增减主题，同时推荐适用的研究文献、其所在主题领域的实践经验总结，以及可纳入其他课程的独立主题。基于上述反馈，研究团队修订了主题清单，编制了研究课程需纳入的核心研究文献列表，并设计了可纳入通用中医药研究课程体系的独立主题清单。最终形成的中医药研究课程体系，可提升面向中医药学生的循证医学（evidence-based medicine, EBM）实践教学质量，助力中医药教职人员与项目负责人优化现有课程、开发新课程，并强化循证医学教育。
