Conclusion
This study was conducted among the undergraduate medical students of a public sector medical university, King Edward Medical University.
This cross-sectional study assesses the inclination of medical students towards research conduction by finding out how many students have participated in conducting research and published their articles.
The study also identifies different barriers that undergraduate students face in doing medical research.
Academic overload and difficulty in publishing were among the greatest barriers to research conduction.
