The well publicised doctor shortage in Australia makes understanding how and where future doctors want to work critical to planning tomorrow's medical workforce and addressing access problems for Australians in health areas of need. This large national study will provide valuable insights about how future doctors wish to practise and how these choices and determining factors change over time.
