Medical (general)
I'm translating a form that has to be filled in prior to the commencement of a clinical trial at a university hospital. One of the entries reads:
"GEGEVENS VAN DE ONDERZOEKER(S) [de eerste onderzoeker moet een persoon zijn die vast verbonden is aan de dienst (geen ASO) of universiteit] :"
I know that "ASO" can stand for "Algemeen Secundair Onderwijs" and the hospital in question is actually located in Belgium. However, I was wondering if it is likely to have a different meaning that is more directly linked to medicine/clinical trials in this case.

StR
Short for Arts-Specialist in Opleiding, UZ Leuven translates this as doctor-specialist in training. It's a medical specialist in training, but I'm not sure about the specific designation in the UK or US. According to wikipedia: StR, for Specialist Registrar or Specialty Registrar (UK).

: Following the introduction of the Modernising Medical Careers (MMC) programme in the UK in 2007, the title of "Specialist Registrar" (SpR) has now become outdated and has been replaced with "Specialty Registrar" (StR), as Christoph has rightly indicated.

Discussion
Whichever of the suggested answers you take, my understanding of it is that the researcher must be in a fixed post and not a trainee doing a "stage" as part of a diploma or degree programme.
