Academic Year 2024/2025
This module is designed to provide research students in the first year of their PhD with an overview of the latest advances in infection biology, both through research seminars and critical evaluation of the scientific literature. Students will learn how research is presented in the scientific literature, and also how to critically assess scientific methodologies and hence develop their critical thinking skills. Students will also have to present their own research work and defend their work before their peers. The module will therefore develop critical thinking and communication skills. Each student must present at least 1 journal club and 1 research seminar of their own work per year.
