Reading an original research paper can be difficult! It is hard to determine how well the study has been designed and if the data supports the conclusions made by the author. This seminar will lead you through several published research studies and will highlight the things to look for in a good research paper. Common mistakes in research study design will also be discussed. By the end of the seminar, you will have the tools to confidently assess a research study.
