Inhoud vak
The literature study is an important, compulsory part of the Master’s programme in Biomedical Sciences. In this course, students acquire knowledge, skills and competences which allow them to conduct a literature study in their biomedical field.
In groups, students choose a topic of their interest from a list provided at the start of the course.
The lecture covers the aim and setup of the course and aims to refresh your background knowledge. The workshops cover the basic elements to conduct a (systematic) literature study and allows the group to work on the report. Alongside, each group of students is guided by a topic supervisor.
