Course/Event Description:
This online course aims to provide participants with a strategy for reading and critiquing surgical and medical journal papers, with a step-by-step guide to analysing their methodology, statistics and findings.
Participants will be sent a number of recently published journal papers prior to the course to read in preparation. The emphasis of the course is on general surgery, although the generic approach to reading and critiquing papers is equally applicable to trainees in all surgical and medical specialties.
This course particularly offers preparation to those who will be taking the FRCS academic viva in general surgery and physicians studying for viva’s or research projects.
The course will be run by knowledgeable and friendly course tutors and is interactive, with ample opportunity to ask questions and gain a clear understanding of the topics covered.
