Reading a scientific paper in the IMRAD (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion) format can be a challenging task. This workshop aims to provide participants with the essential skills and techniques required to read and comprehend scientific papers following the IMRAD structure effectively. This is an interactive and hands-on session where we break down the process of deciphering a scientific paper and gain confidence in understanding research articles.

Staying Updated with JournalWatch and BrowZine

Wednesday, January 31, 2024 | 10:30 - 11:00 am, PST

One of the great challenges for clinicians and researchers is keeping up with the literature. Today, we will learn how to stay up-to-date with the help of two useful resources. NEJM Journal Watch is a go-to source for clinicians that curates the most important research and guidelines from medical and scientific journals and provides summaries and expert commentary. BrowZine is an app (and a website) that allows you to browse, read and monitor scholarly journals available through your library.
