A two-hour course designed to encourage doctors to regularly expand their knowledge by reading scientific publications, yet having the ability to look critically and draw valuable conclusions from each article.
Topics covered:
In view of the above, we bring forward a proposal to organise a series of courses for doctors, practitioners and researchers who work at universities and various medical institutes. The courses will address the correct selection of the literature as well as skillful and deliberate extraction of needed and useful, from a practical point of view, pieces of information.
The training is supposed to have a modular structure; each module shall be conducted by an experienced researcher, specialist in a given discipline, as well as a representative of the Patron or the Sponsor of the course.
